Supporting a Person Who Has Cancer
Supporting a Person Who Has Cancer
Supporting someone with cancer can be challenging. You may feel unsure of what to say or how to offer assistance, or, as a patient, express what is needed. In this seminar, specialists from the Upstate Cancer Center will cover how to offer practical, emotional, or spiritual support to someone with cancer, from the patient's perspective. They also will address tips for creating a care plan to help the patient manage their home, medical and self-care needs. Open to patients, family, friends, caregivers, and anyone interested in the topic.
