These programs consist of cancer screening, early detection, prevention of cancer, navigation for patients, chaplain and social work services. The year of 2020 was a challenging one for patients and the community as everyone sheltered at home and many did not get to their doctor or participate in annual cancer screenings. In spite of this the tri-cities cancer center provided free screenings for breast cancer, skin cancer, colo-rectal cancer.the community education program went virtual and was still well attended with physicians giving education on cancer topics. Support groups quickly went to zoom meeting format and continued to offer support to those who were going through cancer during this difficultyear. The center's nurse navigators and social workers heard from many patients that access to food was a big issue for them, in response we started a program partnering with local restaurants to provide free meals once a week to all patients under care at the cancer center.as of march 1, 2021, the remaining assets and operation of tri-cities cancer center were merged into kadlec regional medical center, a related 501(c)(3) organization, and tri-cities cancer center was dissolved.
