Prevention
There’s a lot you can do to reduce your risk of cancer – starting with living a healthy, active lifestyle.
Screening
Cancer screening is looking for cancer before a person has any symptoms. Screening tests can help find cancer at an early stage, before symptoms appear.
Diagnosis
You will have many tests and appointments as your healthcare team works together to find out if you have cancer.
Treatment & After Treatment
As you finish cancer treatment, you and your family members/partners-in-care may have questions about your future. This is normal. You may feel happy and relieved you have finished treatment. You may also feel tired, worried, scared, angry or alone. This is a time of change for you and your family members/partners-in-care as you adjust to a new normal.
Palliative Care
Palliative care is a special kind of healthcare for individuals living with a life-limiting illness. The goal of palliative care is to provide comfort and dignity as well as the best quality of life.
