Oncology social work
Our oncology-specialized social workers in the Office of Care Management:
- Are available to identify any potential barriers or concerns you may have during treatment
- Help you navigate available resources
- Provide emotional support and counseling to you and your family members during treatment
Palliative Care Program
Providers in our Palliative Care Program address you as a whole person, including your physical comfort, emotional well-being and spirituality. We help you approach your diagnosis and treatment goals with confidence and dignity.
Because your loved ones are also involved in your care, the palliative care team supports and includes them, as well. Since no two people are alike, our palliative care team works with you, your loved ones, and your clinicians.
Support groups
We host ongoing support group gatherings for patients and care partners. Pre-registration is required, and most are available virtually from the comfort of your home.
Tobacco Treatment Program
Our Tobacco Treatment Program can help you, your family members or friends quit tobacco (including vapes). Quitting tobacco has many benefits for people with cancer. Continued tobacco use can worsen side effects of cancer treatment.
