A Team Approach to Cancer Care
Supportive Care Services
A collaborative approach to cancer care starts with
teams of cancer professionals who work together to
develop the ideal treatment plan for each patient through
multidisciplinary, disease-site specific cancer programs.
Support services assist patients from treatment to
recovery and through survivorship, including complementary
medicine, behavioral health, palliative care, nutrition and
social work services.
