Helping you move forward with strength and support

Cancer survivorship is about more than finishing treatment. At Endeavor Health, our survivorship programs help you transition from active care to long-term wellness. Whether you’re managing late effects, rebuilding strength, or navigating new concerns, our team is here to help you live fully — with education, connection and a personalized plan for what comes next.

Survivorship programs and services

Survivorship care plans

You’ll receive a personalized care plan summarizing your treatment history, outlining recommended follow-up, and offering tools for long-term wellness and prevention. You may also meet with an advanced practice nurse to review long-term concerns and collaborate with your primary care and oncology teams.

Long-term follow-up

We help monitor your health over time with recommended labs, screenings and checkups to detect recurrence or manage late effects.

Wellness and lifestyle counseling

We provide  nutrition support, fitness programs, mindfulness, smoking cessation and other tools to support your long-term healing and help prevent future health issues.

Rehabilitation services

You’ll have access to physical therapy, occupational therapy or speech therapy tailored to your cancer recovery and specific functional goals.

Survivor education events

We offer programs like Survivorship 101 and community workshops that cover topics like nutrition, mental health, cognitive changes and intimacy — in person or virtually.
