For this month, we are very fortunate and pleased to have a presentation by Nancy Hannon, Windsor Regional Hospital (WRH) Social Worker.

Nancy was in Children’s Mental Health for 16 years prior to the Cancer program. She currently supports both out-patient patients and their families as well as patients in the Out-Patient Palliative Clinic. Nancy is an active member of the Patient and Family Advisory Council (PFAC) Caregiver Support Committee as well as Cancer Care Ontario Sexual Health Committee and she supports patients and their partners with their sexual health needs.
Nancy will provide an overview of social work services within the cancer program, how to refer, how the social work program supports patients/families and caregivers and the importance of emotional, psychological and sexual support. She will bring pamphlets and a resource for those that wish to take one. Please Join us!
