Care Navigator (Tower Hamlets Community Health Services)

As part of the service, we are also supporting patients with a diagnosis of Cancer.  The Macmillan Care Navigators will support patients who have been newly diagnosed or are already receiving treatment. The Care Navigation team will support the patient along that journey and help to enable effective communication between agencies which form the virtual and informal “team around the patient” including family and informal carers.
