Symptom Control & Palliative Care Consult Program

Program for patients of the Cross Cancer Institute who are having problems with pain or other symptoms from cancer.

The patient is followed by the team until pain or other symptoms improve. Management is then continued by the primary care physician or nurse practitioner.
