In the wake of current events, we are more inspired than ever by the incredible healthcare heroes at BC Cancer who show up every day to treat patients and save lives in the face of unprecedented challenge. Cancer patients are incredibly vulnerable at this time and our clinicians approach each day with unwavering dedication to deliver critical care to those in need.

“We remain steadfast and stand in solidarity with our healthcare colleagues across the province in our commitment to bring world-leading care to patients in our communities across British Columbia,” says Katie Hennessy, Clinical Nurse Leader, BC Cancer – Victoria. “For those facing a cancer diagnosis, the rise of COVID-19 has made a challenging time even more stressful, especially as they navigate through the anxieties that are often brought on by treatment. Our teams want all of our patients to know that we will are here for them no matter the challenge.”
