Patient Navigation in Gyn Cancers - November 8, 2023

 


We hope you can join us on Wednesday November 8, 2023 at 8pm ET (9pm CT, 5pm PT) for the last #gyncsm chat of 2023. Out topic of discussion will be Patient Navigation. 

The American Cancer Society states that "Patient Navigators can help with practical needs, physical needs and social and emotional needs". We will have patient navigators Roberta Codemo and Debra Rundles joining us to share more details about the role navigators play in the lives of gynecologic cancer patients. 

Questions guiding our chat will include:

T1: What is a patient navigator? Are there different types? Do all patients have nurse navigators?

T2: What are some of the types of things that patient navigators do for patients? Do they also support caregivers?

T3: At what stage in a patient’s diagnosis does a navigator most often play a role?

T4: Are there certifications for patient navigators?

T5: Where can a patient find navigation services?

If you have been helped by a patient navigator we hope you can stop by and share your experience with our community. 

We hope you can join us on X on the 8th!
