Cancer Care Facts

By simple definition, cancer refers to an unregulated growth of a group of cells, called tumors. The cause of cancer is unknown, and it can be categorized into two groups: benign and malignant. A benign tumor is cell growth that stays in one area, and a malignant tumor spreads throughout the whole body, infecting other organs. Common types of cancer we hear about on the radio or TV include breast cancer, prostate cancer, and lung cancer.

If given the option, most cancer patients would opt for in-home care after surgery or hospitalization. Caregivers and home health aides provide assistance with meal preparation, medication, personal care and lifting/transferring. There’s no need to stress when your loved one is in good hands!
