Describe the Organization's Program Activity:

Part 3 - Line 4a

INTEGRATIVE SUPPORTIVE CARE FOR PATIENTS IN TREATMENT FOR BREAST CANCER INTEGRATIVE MEDICINE IS A TOTAL APPROACH TO MEDICAL CARE THAT COMBINES STANDARD MEDICINE WITH COMPLEMENTARY, ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE PRACTICES THAT HAVE BEEN SHOWN TO BE SAFE AND EFFECTIVE. THEY TREAT THE PATIENT'S MIND, BODY, AND SPIRIT. COMPLEMENTARY MEDICINE IS TREATMENTS THAT ARE USED ALONG WITH STANDARD MEDICAL TREATMENTS BUT ARE NOT CONSIDERED TO BE STANDARDS TREATMENTS. EXAMPLE: ACUPUNCTURE HELPS LESSEN SOME SIDE EFFECTS OF CANCER TREATMENT. OUR PROGRAM COVERS BOTH AREAS AND OFFERS SUPPORTIVE CARE SERVICES AND PRODUCTS DESIGNED TO HELP MANAGE THE EMOTIONAL, PHYSICAL, SOCIAL AND FINANCIAL SIDE EFFECTS OF BREAST CANCER TREATMENT. ANYONE RESIDING IN LARIMER OR WELD COUNTIES, OR A NON-RESIDENT RECEIVING TREATMENT IN ONE OF THE TWO COUNTIES, 18-YEARS OF AGE, AND CURRENTLY IN TREATMENT FOR BREAST CANCER IS ELIGIBLE TO APPLY. THROUGHOUT OUR HISTORY, HOPE LIVES HAS EFFECTIVELY PROVIDED SERVICES AND PRODUCTS THAT MAY PROVIDE QUALITY OF LIFE DURING CANCER TREATMENT. EACH PROGRAM PARTICIPANT RECEIVES A SET FINANCIAL ALLOWANCE WHICH THEY ARE ABLE TO DRAW-DOWN VIA SERVICES RECEIVED. THIS ALLOWANCE IS MANAGED BY OUR CARE NAVIGATOR AND OFFICE ADMINISTRATOR. MANY PARTICIPANTS APPRECIATE ACUPUNCTURE SERVICE WHICH REDUCES OR ELIMINATES NAUSEA FROM CHEMOTHERAPY. OTHERS SEEK TO USE THEIR ALLOWANCE ON MASTECTOMY PRODUCTS, WIGS, AND HOUSEKEEPING SERVICES. A MONTHLY SUPPORT GROUP IS AVAILABLE TO ATTEND AND FACILITATED BY A LICENSED PSYCHOTHERAPIST. A NEW CHALLENGE FOR OUR ORGANIZATION IS KEEPING UP WITH THE GROWTH OF PROGRAM PARTICIPATION AND THE ABILITY TO MEET THE FUNDING NECESSARY DUE TO OUR GEOGRAPHIC POPULATION EXPANSION AND THE RATE OF DIAGNOSED CASES. HOPE LIVES PRIDES ITSELF FOR BEING GOOD STEWARDS OF THE FINANCIAL CONTRIBUTIONS RECEIVED FROM PRIVATE AND CORPORATE GIFTS AND GRANT AWARDS. WE CONTINUE TO ANALYZE OUR FISCAL RESPONSIBILITIES AND MAINTAIN TRUST STANDARDS AS SET BY THE BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU.
