When you have a cancer diagnosis you will be invited to a cancer information event. This event is set out like a roadshow with lots of information stands. Our health professionals are at these events to offer support and information around relevant topics that you may be affected by, for example:
Living with and beyond cancer team
Diet and nutrition information
Action health and exercise information
Cancer teams and site specific information
Specialist nurses available
Support groups
Macmillan
Financial support information
Oncology team and support
Side effect info and support
Palliative care
Mary stevens hospice and complimentary services
Dudley integrated care team
Dudley carers hub
Community outreach team
Health watch
Look good feel better/ body image/wig advice
Dudley bladder and bowel team
Not all of the information at this event will be relevant to your case, but it demonstrates what support and services are available.
We can make referrals on the day to these services once we have discussed this with you.
Tea and coffee available.
