The Patient Navigator program helps patients, families, and caregivers navigate the many systems needed during the cancer journey. Trained Patient Navigators link those dealing with cancer to needed programs and resources.
How can a Patient Navigator help you?
- By providing literature on coping with cancer, what to expect during chemotherapy and radiation, and dealing with side effects of treatment.
- By referring you to support groups, classes, and other programs for information and support.
- By helping you identify resources for financial assistance, medication needs, home health care, insurance questions, transportation, and other concerns.
- By listening, caring, and helping you in your time of need.
- By identifying activities that can help ensure a better quality of life.
- By helping cancer survivors learn to self-navigate.
The Patient Navigator program is a collaborative program between the American Cancer Society and partners such as hospitals and cancer centers around the state of Ohio. This community-based partnership allows outreach to those most in need during the cancer experience.
