If you have cancer you can request our Cancer Advice Service, which provides access to a dedicated care team who will provide you with emotional and practical support and advice.
We'll start with an introductory call with a nurse and then a dedicated care team will be on hand for 8 additional calls (up to 20 minutes each). They'll discuss specific concerns or questions you may have. As part of your support you can email and message them too.
The type of support and information provided will be tailored to your specific needs and may include:
The care team will offer their assistance where they can and, in their clinical discretion, may:
Signpost you to one of the other membership services provided by Benenden Health such as the 24/7 Mental Health Helpline, Mental Health Support, or Physiotherapy.
Signposting you to the Benenden Charitable Trust which could help with things like equipment, complementary therapies , special clothes, head coverings (like wigs) or prosthetics.
Signpost you to local and national charities, organisations and support groups.
This service can also be requested by members who have been diagnosed with tuberculosis.
