Collaboration & Communication
When you arrive at CTCA, your care team works closely with you to understand your unique diagnosis, needs and preferences. Then, together, you will develop an integrated breast cancer treatment plan that’s right for you.
Throughout your treatment, you’ll receive ongoing evaluations, personal consultations, education and support. In addition, your care team meets each week to discuss the progression of your breast cancer treatment as it relates to your specific medical, nutritional, emotional and spiritual needs. This allows our cancer experts to share in your progress and work to improve the quality of your breast cancer treatment and care.
You will also be assigned a personal care manager (a registered nurse) who will follow you from your first visit at CTCA through your entire breast cancer treatment and aftercare process. If you have any questions or concerns about your treatment or care, you may contact your care manager at any time.
