​​Cancer Survivorship Group

Bringing together those willing to help, with those seeking support

Due to the ongoing COVID-19 restrictions, we are moving to an online Cancer Survivorship Group. The Zoom discussion will be led by one of our medical social workers. We’re here to support you no matter where you are in your cancer journey. We welcome anyone with a current or past cancer diagnosis, along with one family member or caregiver to take part in the virtual group.

To participate you must have access to Zoom video conferencing on your computer, phone or electronic device. You must also have a webcam or camera that allows you to be seen on the screen.

Unfortunately, we must limit the group size to allow adequate time for everyone to interact, so please register well in advance. You will be notified following your registration if there is room for you this month or if the group is full.

To register for the group, email cancersupportgroups@nebraskamed.com. Please RSVP by noon the day before group. You will receive a confirmation email with instructions. Please provide your name, phone number and the name of a family member/caregiver that will join you online.

First Tuesday of each month via Zoom from 5 to 6 p.m.
Sign up for a free Zoom account at https://zoom.us//home or download the Zoom app on your mobile device.
For questions, email: cancersupportgroups@nebraskamed.com
