Social Services

A team of social workers and psychologists from the Simmons Cancer Center and a nurse navigator are dedicated to supporting patients and families.

What we do

A dedicated nurse navigator helps patients navigate their care through the neuro-oncology clinic and radiation oncology clinic and helps the lines of communication. The team provides counseling for emotional support and guidance to patients & families. There is additional support for home care services, information for patient and caregiver support groups, psychosocial assessments, and assistance with transitions of care planning.
