Metastatic Stage IV Breast Cancer Community Support Program
What is metastatic breast cancer?
Metastatic breast cancer (also called stage IV or advanced breast cancer) is not a specific type of breast cancer, but rather the most advanced stage of breast cancer. We know that stage IV breast cancer has its' own unique set of challenges, and The Christ Hospital is excited to host a Community Support Program in Cincinnati for women living with this disease.
Community Support Program Details
The Metastatic Stage IV Breast Cancer Community Support Program at The Christ Hospital is a professionally lead support group to provide information and peer support to patients with stage IV breast cancer. Recognizing a need for this type of support group in the Cincinnati area, The Christ Hospital is partnering with Cancer Support Community to provide a safe environment for women to learn about this disease, hear from professional speakers, and form a networking support group.
