We are with you, every step of the way.
If you or someone you love has cancer, we are here.
As a new member of our Cancer Wellness Support community, we aim to assist you and your family to cope more effectively with your diagnosis and to feel supported by your local community.
Our methodology is built upon participation and collaboration. We adopt a person-centred approach with personalised experiences that are adaptable and tailored to you.
In your confidential consultation with our intake nurse, we will design a program tailored to your needs.
Your first steps in becoming a member will ensure we create a program that supports you, your family and specific circumstances.
Our intake process is:
Client makes initial contact with Cancer Wellness Support.
This could be the client themselves or a family member / carer.
Client chats with the nurse about their current situation.
The nurse explains the assistance we can provide which may be of interest to the client, alongside their medical treatment.
Client becomes a member.
This allows them to access subsidised therapies and to receive newsletters, education and other support.
In our person-centred approach, we will identify your individual needs and match you with the right therapist. We take into consideration the type of cancer, side effects from treatment, overall health needs, and personal preferences (such as ease of attending appointments, transport issues and location of therapist).
Your therapy choices may be a mixture of individual sessions, groups and workshops. These may also change over time as your sense of wellbeing changes.
This personalised approach ensures you receive the care and support that best suits your needs, fostering empowerment. You can utilise our services for as long as you need – you are not limited to a maximum number of sessions or a set period of time.
We understand that the journey you are embarking on is a unique and challenging one, and we are here to stand beside you every step of the way. Together, you will design a program that best meets your needs.
