CANCER NAVIGATORS (CN) SERVES AS A COMPLEMENT TO THE MEDICAL EXPERTISE OF CANCER CARE PROVIDERS BY GUIDING THOSE AFFECTED BY CANCER TOWARD A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF DIAGNOSIS AND CARE WHILE CONNECTING THEM WITH NEEDED RESOURCES IN THEIR JOURNEY - FREE OF CHARGE. EACH PATIENT'S NEEDS ARE ASSESSED, AND NAVIGATORS DEVELOP PERSONALIZED PLANS TO ADDRESS THE PHYSICAL, EMOTIONAL, FINANCIAL, AND SOCIAL SIDE EFFECTS OF CANCER.

PATIENTS MAY NEED HELP WITH TRANSPORTATION TO TREATMENTS, AESTHETIC HELP IN THE FORM OF WIGS OR PROSTHESES, HELP WITH INSURANCE OR OTHER RESOURCE PAPERWORK, OR COUNSELING TO HELP WITH THE EMOTIONAL PUNCH CANCER PACKS. DURING A TIME MANY PATIENTS DESCRIBE AS THE MOST CHALLENGING OF THEIR LIVES, SERVICE NAVIGATORS IDENTIFY AND HELP SECURE NEEDED RESOURCES AND SERVICES.
