Today is World Cancer Day. This year’s focus is on reducing the stigmas and dispelling the myths that continue to surround this pervasive disease.
Specifically, that:
- We don’t need to talk about cancer
- There are no signs or symptoms of cancer
- There is nothing I can do about cancer
- I don’t have the right to cancer care
At Polaris Health Directions we are proud of our role helping cancer treatment centers better address the psychosocial distress of the patients they serve, and giving cancer patients a means to express their concerns and needs.
