Lung Cancer: Breathing Easier

Type:
Educational Support Meeting

Summary:
This is a diagnosis-specific meeting that is co-led by social workers and nurses, and is tailored to give people an opportunity to work on adjustment to life after treatment.

We encourage people to share concerns while gathering medical and rehabilitation information from health care staff.
