When you or a loved one faces a cancer diagnosis it can be a confusing
and overwhelming time. At Shannon, we understand the flood of questions
and concerns that arise with cancer, and it is our goal to help you navigate
the process.
Every one of our oncology patients has access to a dedicated patient navigator,
who is an oncology certified (OCN)registered nurse that understands and
empathizes with your needs. Your navigator works as your advocate, providing
guidance and moral support throughout your journey.
Your patient navigator can assist you with:
Coordinating referrals for oncology care
Helping you engage in services and resources
Helping you understand your personalized plan of care
Providing you with information to make your visit easier
Helping decrease barriers to care
From initial diagnosis and biopsy to treatment and post-treatment recovery,
our goal is to be by your side from start to finish—helping you
and your loved ones find answers to your every question. Your patient
navigator is extensively familiar with not only Shannon’s Oncology
Center but also all supporting departments and associated clinical trials,
so your point of contact provides you access to everything Shannon has to offer.
