Nurse Navigators

At Baylor Scott & White, you don’t have to navigate a cancer diagnosis alone. You, your family and your caregivers have access to compassionate, specially trained nurses whose primary focus is guiding you on your journey.

Your nurse navigator is the champion of your care and a personal advocate. Their goal is to reduce fear and anxiety, remove barriers to care and improve communication among the multi-disciplinary team, ensuring you feel empowered and informed on your journey.

Nurse navigators can:

• Help with understanding your diagnosis and treatment options for informed decision making.
• Provide personalized education based on your preferred language and learning style.
• Assist with any barriers to care.
• Offer referrals to needed resources such as support groups, child life services and financial support.

Whether you're facing a suspicious finding, a new diagnosis or navigating through complex treatments, a nurse navigator is there to ensure you're informed about options for care, never alone, and always have someone to turn to for guidance and support.
