Introducing CancerHome — a new and improved approach to patient care designed by the experts at e+CancerCare. Used in a growing number of e+CancerCare facilities, CancerHome is a care and guidance model that surrounds the patient with all the best tools, resources, and personnel — from initial diagnosis through treatment, survivorship, and, if needed, hospice care.
CancerHome Guide
A key component of the CancerHome model is the patient guide.
An important member of the treatment team, the CancerHome
Guide is someone who provides support, identifies appropriate
resources to meet each patient’s individual needs, and is always available to answer questions about specialists, treatments, medication, billing, and more.
CancerHome Handbook
This informative tool is designed by experienced clinicians to help differentiate and elevate the level of care patients receive at e+CancerCare facilities. The CancerHome Handbook is delivered to each patient after diagnosis and used throughout each treatment phase. It is customized for each center and typically includes:
- A general overview of cancer.
- Explanation of clinical cancer care services.
- Tips on preparing for appointments.
- A treatment calendar.
- Important locations, phone numbers, and hours of operation.
- Logs for documenting allergies, treatments, imaging, and symptoms.
- Financial worksheets.
- Contact information for support groups and third-party resources.
- Customized education specific to each individual patient’s condition and treatment(s).
