At Baylor Scott & White, you don’t have to navigate a cancer diagnosis alone. You, your family and your caregivers have access to compassionate, specially trained nurses whose primary focus is guiding you on your journey.
Your nurse navigator is the champion of your care and a personal advocate. Their goal is to reduce fear and anxiety, remove barriers to care and improve communication among the multi-disciplinary team, ensuring you feel empowered and informed on your journey.
Nurse navigators can:
Whether you're facing a suspicious finding, a new diagnosis or navigating through complex treatments, a nurse navigator is there to ensure you're informed about options for care, never alone, and always have someone to turn to for guidance and support.
Through our Patient Navigation Program, nurse navigators are here to support you. They’ll help you, your family, and your caregivers manage the decisions, emotions and challenges that come with a cancer diagnosis. From your first visit, they’ll be a trusted resource to make your journey easier, so you can focus on healing.
Between your primary care provider, oncologists, surgeons and other specialists, you will have many members of your care team working to ensure you receive effective care. Your nurse navigator serves as a single point of contact between you, your care team and any other specialists you may need.
Your nurse navigator also ensures you get the answers and support you need to continue receiving care. They can communicate your concerns about treatments or help you get assistance for treatment-related side effects from your doctors, a nutritionist or other team members. They can also coordinate services, such as transportation, to help you make it to your appointments.
Cancer is a complex condition that requires multiple specialists working together for the best possible outcome. Nurse navigators help ensure you meet with the specialists you need and that they are all on the same page about your wishes and goals for treatment.
In addition to providing individual care specific to your needs, your nurse navigator facilitates communication among the multi-disciplinary team. They review tests and treatment options individual doctors may recommend and can identify other services you may need, such as molecular testing, genetic counseling or participation in a clinical trial.
Nurse navigators are advocates for your care needs. They provide timely resources, education and interventions tailored specifically for you. That advocacy may look different for everyone, depending on their diagnosis and needs.
You may need help managing the mental and emotional aspects of cancer, and your nurse navigator can explore options with you, such as meditation, journaling, arts and medicine, and even assist with a referral to a mental health professional. You may also want information about other care options, including integrative medicine, supportive palliative care or hospice care.
Ultimately, nurse navigators work with you to better understand your needs and to empower you to make informed decisions about your treatment options.
One of a nurse navigator’s main goals is to ensure that you and your family have all the information you need to make informed choices about your journey and treatment plan.
Nurse navigators educate patients and their families in many ways. They can:
In addition to clinical care, advocacy and education, your nurse navigator wants to ensure that you feel supported physically and emotionally during initial diagnosis, throughout treatment and into survivorship.
Nurse navigators get to know you and what services may offer the most help. They can connect you with:
Your nurse navigator is also with you throughout your cancer journey into survivorship, helping ensure you get continued screenings, have the resources necessary to attend follow-up visits and get care for long-term side effects of your treatments.
Your family and caregivers play an important role in your cancer journey. A nurse navigator is here not only to assist you but also to help those who are supporting you. They offer guidance to help them navigate their own challenges.
Here’s how nurse navigators support your loved ones:
They assist with education and resources for managing emotional distress, anxiety and caregiver burnout. They also assist with referrals to resources (such as licensed counselors) to help your family manage the emotional stress of your diagnosis and treatment.
We know cancer affects more than just the person diagnosed. That’s why your navigator will ensure your family and caregivers have the tools and support they need to be there for you every step of the way.
