Meet Our Navigators

Patient navigation is a process by which we proactively guide patients through the health system to coordinate services. As the point of contact for the patient, patient navigation ensures all patients with suspicious findings receive timely diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up care to achieve better outcomes.

The Navigator is a clinical expert who works with healthcare providers, financial counselors, and social services to enable the patient to access available resources.

Goals of Patient Navigation:

  • Save lives from cancer
  • Eliminate barriers to care
  • Ensure timely delivery of services
  • Educate and empower patients to take an active role in their care
  • Potential cost savings through improved patient care and results

For more information, contact Halifax Health – Center for Oncology Navigators at 386.425.4212.

Let’s Talk Colon Health!

Colorectal cancer is the third most common cause of cancer in men and women, and the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the U.S. Most people believe that colorectal cancer is an “old persons” disease. In reality the rates of colorectal cancer are rising in individuals younger than 50.
