BJC and Saint Luke’s Officially Combine as BJC Health System

Why choose us for cancer support services? 

BJC HealthCare works with Washington University physicians, BJC Medical Group, and providers across the region to deliver extraordinary care. Siteman Cancer Center and the Missouri Baptist Cancer Center are two programs accessible through BJC HealthCare. We know that when you decide where to receive cancer treatment, your focus is on the quality of the medical care. We also understand that throughout treatment, you’ll want and need additional support.

When you receive supportive cancer care with us, you’ll experience:

  • Support for you — and your loved ones: Facing cancer can affect your physical and emotional health. But this journey can also be difficult for those you love. Our supportive services are here for you, your family and anyone else in your circle of care. 

  • Care for every stage of the journey: Whether you’re newly diagnosed, receiving treatment or in survivorship, we’re here for you. Our care for you begins the minute you step through our doors and continues as long as you need it.

  • An ongoing commitment to your well-being: Cancer survivorship can have its own unique challenges. If you need additional support as you navigate your new life, we’re here to help.

Cancer support services we provide

Our goal is to make sure you have the support you need throughout every phase of cancer treatment and survivorship. We provide services that help you manage symptoms, handle emotional distress and connect you with others.

Improving your quality of life during cancer treatment can not only make you feel better, but also help improve how well you respond to treatment. Our compassionate team is here for you, offering support services including:

  • Patient and family navigators: These dedicated professionals help coordinate all aspects of your care. They can schedule appointments, provide education to you and your family, arrange transportation and connect you with financial assistance. 

  • Palliative care: Our palliative care team provides you with the tools to manage symptoms and side effects so that you can focus on your treatment. 

  • Nutritional guidance: Cancer, and its treatment, can make good nutrition a challenge. Our registered dietitians can create a food plan that works for you. 

  • Pain management: Pain is often a part of cancer. Our pain management specialists can help you find relief. 

  • Emotional counseling: Every stage of a cancer journey comes with its own challenges. Our cancer psychologists understand and are here to help you cope with emotional and mental health issues. 

  • Art, music and pet therapy: These services offer creative ways to help you cope with emotional challenges during cancer treatment. 

  • Massage Therapy: We provide cancer-specific massage therapy to relieve side effects and harness the healing power of touch. 

  • Cancer support groups: We offer support groups for all different types and stages of cancer. These groups give you the opportunity to connect with others experiencing the same challenges.
