cancer guide

With 1 in 3 women and 1 in 2 men being diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime, there are many of us who are caring for someone with cancer. The Empowered Patient has released their cancer caregiver’s guide.

The guide shows how to

  • create a cancer care plan
  • create an emergency action plan
  • create a medication management plan
  • plan meals around chemo side effects
  • how to handle insurance and finances
  • creating advance directives
  • understanding cancer
  • dealing with a terminal diagnosis

You can download the guide as a PDF.
