🌿 5 Things Every New Cancer Patient Should Know About Navigating Care 🌿

A new cancer diagnosis can feel overwhelming — but having the right tools and support can make your journey smoother. At My Journey Nurse, we walk alongside you every step of the way. Here are 5 things every new patient should know:

1️⃣ You Are Not Alone – Surround yourself with a care team that listens, supports, and advocates for you.

2️⃣ Ask Questions Often – There are no “bad” questions. Understanding your treatment and care plan helps you feel empowered.

3️⃣ Stay Organized – Keep a journal or folder for appointments, medications, and notes. It reduces stress and helps track progress.

4️⃣ Prioritize Self-Care – Nutrition, rest, and gentle activity are key to supporting your body during treatment.

5️⃣ Lean on Support Systems – Family, friends, and your care team can share the load — you don’t have to carry it alone.

💡 At My Journey Nurse, our mission is to ensure you feel informed, supported, and confident as you navigate treatment. Whether through patient onboarding, care coordination, or ongoing support, we’re here for you.
