For Health Care Providers
Provide Your Patients Compassionate Care Ahead of Consultation
I know firsthand that the health care providers working in Radiation Oncology are incredibly compassionate people. We give our hearts, our time, our resources, and our energy willingly and openly to the people who need our care, often in some of our patients’ darkest times. When they are in our presence we can address their concerns, answer their questions and help them get through this chapter in their life…
…but what about when they’re not in front of us? How can we provide guidance and peace of mind for those wanting to learn more now? Or for those anxiously waiting to meet with you for their consultation in a few days?
We now can offer Let’s Talk Radiation Therapy as a resource for patients so we can prepare them for this process, the conversation, and this experience.

Better Prepare Our Patients for the Process
Help patients clearly understand the steps we take to develop, design and deliver their radiation treatments. Limit the amount of information they feel “surprised” by and provide clarity surrounding the different oncology physicians. Prepare your patients to be better listeners and allow them to be open minded to your tailored and creative treatment solutions.
Better Prepare Our Patients for the Experience
Let’s better prepare our patients by helping them understand fatigue and its causes so they don’t feel defeated by it. Set a realistic tone for treatment scheduling intricacies and guidance for success at simulation and treatment. Address treatment room anxiety by offering realistic solutions for managing it successfully, ahead of them even stepping foot into the clinic.
Give Patients the Opportunity to Strategize
Let’s give them the opportunity to prepare, process, and get comfortable with the abundance of new information so they arrive feeling ready and far less overwhelmed.
