Support Groups Help Patients Through Hard Times

July 2nd, 2009

We encourage patients and caregivers to take advantage of the many support groups available through Floyd Memorial, including:

  • Look Good/Feel Better – A program of the American Cancer Society (ACS) in which volunteer cosmetologists meet with cancer patients to share make-up techniques and information about wigs and ways to disguise hair loss.
  • Reach to Recovery – An ACS program with survivor-led groups for women facing breast cancer.
  • Cancer Support Group and Caregiver Support Group, which meet the first and third Thursdays of each month.
  • Breast Cancer Support Group, which meets the second Thursday of every other month.

actionFor more information on any of these programs call 1-800-4-SOURCE (1-800-476-8723) or visit our Classes and Events section online.
