Easter Seals Offers Rehab to Breast Cancer Survivors
The Easter Seals Greater Hartford Rehabilitation Center is helping breast cancer survivors recuperate from physical and psychological problems caused by their cancer diagnosis and treatment.
Thousands of women and men undergo treatment for breast cancer each year. Once surgical, radiation and chemotherapy treatments are completed many experience lingering side effects which impair their ability to function physically or mentally. With support from the Johnson and Johnson Pathways to Independence Program, Easter Seals of Hartford, Connecticut, has launched the Breast Cancer Pathways Program to help these survivors improve these troubling conditions.
The program provides outpatient rehabilitative services designed to address the specific needs of breast cancer survivors. Pain management, physical conditioning, occupational therapy and lymphedema care are just a few of the comprehensive services offered by professionals at the Hartford center.
To learn more about the program, visit the Breast Cancer Pathways Program web page or call 1-860-714-9500.
