Erlanger Cancer Center announces the opening of the new Cancer Resource and Survivorship Center.  It is located on the 1^st floor directly above Erlanger’s Radiation Therapy Department, CyberKnife®, Infusion Services and The Chattanooga Tumor Clinic.  The Resource Center will be staffed by volunteer Cancer Survivors with immediate access to our comprehensive staff inclusive of our: Patient Care Advocate, Breast Cancer Navigator, Research Nurses, Oncology Educator, Social Worker and Dietician. 

We welcome all Survivors, as well as their Co-Survivors (family), that are interested in becoming an Erlanger Cancer Center Volunteer.  Volunteering for a 4 hour shift earns you a free meal, special volunteer parking and that warm fuzzy feeling that you get inside from helping a fellow survivor access things they need to lighten the load of their current battle with cancer.  

For more information regarding CyberKnife®, a new technology offered at Erlanger, please visit www.cancercanthide.org

Any questions? Want to become a volunteer? Please call Janet Kramer-Mai at (423) 778-3253.
