Celebrating 30 Years of the Patient and Family Resource Center
“As we all navigate the constantly changing landscape of healthcare, the PFRC will continue to be a true ‘home away from home’ for our patients and their loved ones while they travel the momentous journey of cancer treatment.
“Our staff and volunteers, along with our entire ‘extended family’ within the Comprehensive Cancer Support Program, will continue to provide welcoming spaces, compassionate care, as well as resources to connect with the patient wherever they are.”
