Supporting the William R. Bliss Cancer Center
A cancer diagnosis is life-changing, and the decisions that need to be made can quickly become overwhelming. In our community, more than 1,000 people receive a cancer diagnosis every year.
The compassionate team at the William R. Bliss Cancer Center is committed to supporting our patients with cancer and addressing barriers to care through the extensive programs and services of the Cancer Resource Center.
Rhoades Cancer Compassion Fund
The Dr. Joe Rhoades Cancer Compassion Fund provides support to patients and families beyond what the hospital is able to provide. Assistance is based on financial need and is designed to respond to the unique medical needs of patients and their families, which can include gas cards for those who travel far distances, overnight accommodations and special treatment related needs.
For someone in the battle of their life, these expenses can quickly become a financial hardship and an overwhelming distraction from their healing process. The Rhoades Cancer Compassion Fund provides the ability to help patients and families who need that extra little bit of assistance in order to help them live the best quality of life while going through treatment. In addition, these funds help bring peace of mind during a time that is extremely stressful.

The programs and services within the Cancer Resource Center are provided at no charge and therefore rely on philanthropy and the generosity of our community.
The Cancer Navigation team of oncology registered nurses connects patients to all supportive services necessary for comprehensive, compassionate care from diagnosis through survivorship. Their goal is to educate and support patients and families throughout the cancer journey.
