The guides (formerly known as What to expect) have been developed to help patients identify the steps and recommended care at each stage of their cancer journey, from diagnosis through to treatment and beyond.
Access to supportive care and allied health is essential across all steps of the pathway, including emotional and practical support.
These new resources can help patients understand what assistance is available to help enhance the benefits of treatment and increase their quality of life, like Virginia.
For Virginia Prosser, a grandmother of seven, our support services provided a helping hand when it was needed most.
