Survivorship
According to the National Cancer Institute, the term "survivorship" refers to the physical, psychosocial, and economic issues of cancer, from diagnosis until the end of life. It includes issues related to health care and follow up treatment, late effects of treatment, second cancers, and quality of life. A "survivor" is defined as one who remains alive and continues to function after overcoming difficulties or life-threatening diseases like cancer. At OnCare Cancer Centers, the relationships you formed with clinical staff during your treatments will move with you into survivorship. Your Medical Oncologist, Radiation Oncologist, RNs and many other staff members look forward to reconnecting with you in your follow-up appointments. Each person has a unique response to having cancer, so use the information that feels right to you. We cannot cover everything in this section, but we encourage you to be active in getting the information and support you need.
