HNCA understands that head and neck cancer patients, and their caregivers, face many challenges during and following treatment. Sorting through medical information and materials can be confusing, and at times, overwhelming.
To assist head and neck patients and their caregivers, HNCA provides this Patient & Caregiver section that lists helpful websites of organizations and companies, who can provide additional guidance, educational materials, and tools in navigating the head and neck cancer diagnosis, treatment and post-treatment stages.
