Navigating a cancer diagnosis can be overwhelming for members and their families. But what if there was someone by your side, outside of your core medical team, dedicated solely to guiding you through every step? That’s the unique value Cancer CARE for Life Nurse Navigators bring.

Our Nurse Navigators are personal advocates, knowledgeable guides, and reliable partners bringing a consistent and caring presence in a system that can feel fragmented and overwhelming. They offer unbiased support from the moment of diagnosis through treatment and beyond, helping members understand their options, navigate complex decisions, and manage side effects with confidence.

How Nurse Navigators Support Patients

Here are some of the key ways our Nurse Navigators provide hands-on support throughout each phase of care:

Education and Clarity: We provide clear, understandable explanations of complex medical information, treatment choices, and potential challenges, giving members the confidence to make informed decisions.

Emotional Support: We offer a compassionate and understanding presence, helping members and their families cope with the emotional toll of cancer.

Additional Resources: We connect members with support networks and mental health resources, acting as a consistent and reliable partner.

Barriers to Care: We assess and address obstacles to care, such as financial concerns, transportation, and logistical hurdles.

Member Experience

Upon receiving a new prostate cancer diagnosis, a young member contacted Cancer CARE, sharing his stress and anxiety. He voiced his concerns about the financial strain of treatment and travel, particularly as a rural resident needing time off work.

The Cancer CARE Nurse Navigator provided immediate support, offering financial resources and a list of relevant support groups.

The member expressed significant relief, stating he had “peace of mind having this service available.”

Empowering the Cancer Journey
