Providing proper education to family, friends, and caregivers on what to expect when their loved one is enrolled in hospice is a critical role of oncology navigators.
Teaming up with organizations like the Bonnie J. Addario Lung Cancer Foundation provides local navigator network members with the knowledge and resources on lung cancer.
A welcome sign or literature can show patients with cancer that the disease does not discriminate, and that everyone is dealing with the same cancer-related issues.
The Central Indiana Local Navigator Network uses their LNN meetings to discuss the latest cancer treatments, build their network, and share perspectives on their daily work.
