Education And Support

Our head and neck cancer care extends beyond diagnosis and treatment to help patients get the support they need for their cancer journey. Here’s what we offer your patients.

We want to help you access all of the care and services you need to aid your healing process. If you have cancer of the head or neck, here are some services that may benefit you:

• An oncology nurse navigator who knows a great deal about the needs of head and neck cancer patients will assist you by answering questions and finding resources for you and your family as you move through diagnosis, treatment, and beyond. We have nurse navigators at each of our campuses. Your navigator will be there for you every step of the way.
  

• Our Swallowing Program offers you therapies and strategies if you are having difficulties with swallowing, chewing, or sucking as a result of your cancer or treatment.
  

• Premier Health’s wound centers at Atrium Medical Center, Miami Valley Hospital, Miami Valley Hospital South and Upper Valley Medical Center provide you with an extra level of care for hard-to-heal wounds.
  

Premier Health also offers a wealth of other resources for people with cancer and their loved ones. Learn more.
