Tumor Board

Cancer Center

Tumor Board

Holy Cross Hospital - Jordan Valley Cancer Center’s tumor board is a multidisciplinary team of healthcare professionals who meet regularly to discuss the diagnosis, treatment, and management of our cancer patients. The primary goal of a tumor board is to provide a comprehensive and collaborative approach to cancer care, ensuring that patients receive the best possible treatment based on the latest evidence and the collective expertise of specialists from various fields.

The tumor board typically consists of medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, radiologists, pathologists, surgeons, nurses, and other specialists who have expertise in cancer care. The team collaborates to evaluate each patient's case, review medical imaging, pathology reports, and other diagnostic information, and develop a personalized treatment plan. This can include recommendations for surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, immunotherapy, targeted therapy, or a combination of treatments.

One of the key functions of a tumor board is to ensure that all aspects of a patient's condition are thoroughly considered. This includes the type of cancer, its stage, the patient's overall health, and any other underlying conditions that may impact treatment decisions. By bringing together professionals from different specialties, the tumor board can offer a more holistic view of each patient’s needs and provide a well-rounded treatment approach.

In addition to improving patient care, tumor boards also serve an important educational function by helping healthcare providers stay updated on the latest research and clinical advances in oncology.

Support Services

It is amazing the impact that one simple word — cancer — can have on your life and the lives of your family members. Battling cancer requires a positive attitude, lots of information and knowledge, and a desire to heal. It’s also important to be willing to let others help you through this journey.

Holy Cross Hospital - Jordan Valley Cancer Center offers a wide array of programs and services for patients and their families to help you navigate the journey from cancer diagnosis through treatment and recovery.

Hearing the words "you have cancer" is overwhelming for any patient and family dealing with this complex and difficult disease. Cancer care can be very confusing in that multiple providers are involved from the screening process, to diagnosis, testing, treatment, and survivorship. To make it easier for our patients, we have a nurse navigator program to help patients and their families throughout the cancer care journey.

An oncology nurse navigator is a professional registered nurse with cancer-specific clinical knowledge who helps patients, families, and caregivers successfully navigate their way through the process. An oncology nurse navigator also provides education and resources to facilitate informed decision-making and timely access to quality health and psychosocial care throughout all phases of the cancer continuum.

Research has shown that when nurse navigators become involved early enough after a person has received a cancer diagnosis, they can help steer patients and their families to appropriate care and timely treatment that could dramatically improve patients' chances of living with cancer as a manageable disease.

Holy Cross Jordan Valley Cancer Center provides cancer risk assessment, genetic discussions and testing services for individuals and families with concerns about inherited cancer predispositions. Services are provided by a team of cancer professionals.

Integrative therapy combines conventional treatments with complementary therapies, such as mind-body practice, nutrition and exercise to improve overall well-being and treatment outcomes. These therapies work to address symptoms caused by cancer and its treatments such as fatigue, pain, nausea, anxiety, and many others. 

Holy Cross Jordan Valley Cancer Center understands that battling cancer takes more than just physical care; it also requires emotional and spiritual strength, and a strong support system. Integrative therapy is a service provided to our patients and their caregivers.

From diagnosis through survivorship, the cancer journey can be stressful for patients and their families. Patients, partners and other family members can all suffer from depression, anxiety and stress brought on by the uncertainty and fear of a cancer diagnosis.

Holy Cross Jordan Valley Cancer Center believes in the power of whole-person care that combines treatment for the body, mind and spirit. The mind-body connection is especially important during cancer treatment. That’s why we offer patients a wide range of therapies, including educational and exercise classes, support groups, and other services designed to enhance our patients’ quality of life before, during and after cancer diagnosis and treatment.
