Resources for Patients
A diagnosis of cancer can be mentally and emotionally taxing for patients and their families, but ProMedica Cancer Institute offers many programs and services to help. We don’t just treat cancer, we treat people with cancer. If you have questions about what support programs may help with your cancer journey, please call 877-291-1441.
During Treatment
One thing to know about your cancer journey is that you do not have to do it alone. ProMedica and many other community organizations offer support resources, classes and programs to provide the support you need to heal faster and cope through the many good days and challenges.
Family Resources
While we offer many community-based support services, classes and events to help you and your family when you have been affected by cancer, you may wish to seek further support and information. Many national and local organizations exist that can provide significant information to help you and your family understand cancer and its treatment, and meet your specific needs.
