MANAGING SYMPTOMS:

Our nurses consistently perform patient assessments to make sure you are as comfortable as possible while you go through radiation treatment, chemotherapy, and other cancer treatments.

• Constant fatigue
• Discomfort after eating
• High fever
• Joint pain
• Persistent cough and trouble breathing
• Muscle discomfort

PROACTIVE CARE BY VIGILANT OVERSIGHT:

Our team always operates with a proactive mentality by providing vigilant in-home oversight to anticipate any potential medical emergencies. This ensures you are always as safe and comfortable as possible.

IN-HOME LAB WORK:

Our nurses perform lab work from the comfort of your home to help monitor any abnormalities and update your physician accordingly.

PROPER NUTRITION PLAN:

Eating healthy is important for managing cancer symptoms. Our nurses are trained to help you choose a nutrition plan that is appropriate for your specific type of cancer and can help more effectively manage your symptoms.

HEALTHY EXERCISE REGIMEN:

In addition to eating healthy, exercising is crucial for maintaining overall health and giving your body the agility and metabolic functions it needs to fight off various symptoms associated with cancer. Our nurses help you develop an assisted exercise regimen that works with your specific needs.

COORDINATING DOCTOR’S APPOINTMENTS:

In addition to providing top-notch care, our nurses can schedule and coordinate all logistics for your doctor’s appointments.

PRIORITIZING COMMUNICATION:

Good communication is key for anything, especially for handling something as complicated as cancer care. We prioritize communication with our patients and their families to ensure everyone is on the same page and that our patients receive everything they need in a timely and effective manner.

COORDINATION OF SUPPORTING SERVICES:

To help increase your level of comfort during treatment, our nurses can coordinate various in-home concierge services. These services can help manage symptoms by helping to reduce your overall stress and increase your sense of mindfulness and relaxation. We can help coordinate the following in-home services:
