Cancer Navigators at Banner Health

In cooperation with the American Cancer Society, cancer patients at Banner Health have access to a Patient Navigator at no charge.

The Patient Navigator Program provides guidance for cancer patients, survivors and caregivers to help them navigate the cancer experience.

This community-based partnership between Banner Health and the American Cancer Society allows outreach to those most in need during the cancer experience. The program can be found at:

• Banner Baywood Medical Center
• Banner Boswell Medical Center  
• Banner Desert Medical Center
• Cardon Children's Medical Center

We also offer Cancer Navigator services at North Colorado Medical Center.

A Patient Navigator can help with:

• Literature on coping with cancer, what to expect during chemotherapy and radiation, and side effects.
• Referrals to support groups, classes, and other programs.  
• Identify resources for financial assistance, medication needs, home health care, insurance questiAons, transportation and other concerns.
• Listening, caring and helping you in your time of need.
• Identifying activities that can help ensure a better quality of life.
• Guiding cancer survivors to learn to self-navigate.
