Indigenous Cancer Control - Improving Cancer Control for Indigenous People

Provided by BC Cancer

The Indigenous Patient Navigator service offers supportive, trauma-informed and culturally safe care to Indigenous patients and their families with cancer.
An Indigenous Patient Navigator (IPN) works with the cancer team to deliver supportive, trauma-informed and culturally safe care to Indigenous patients and their families. Patients who identify as Indigenous, First nations, Metis, Inuit, Status and Non-Status, can access IPN services. Please refer to their website as it offers Resources for you and your loved ones, including "Cancer and First Nations People in BC: A Community Resource" and Support Books for those living with cancer.

If you would like to speak with an Indigenous Patient Navigator, fill out the referral form (see below). You can do this yourself or ask a member of your health care team to do it.
