Patient Care is a Team Effort at UT Southwestern’s Harold C. Simmons Comprehensive Cancer Center
Today, Team Draft traveled to Dallas to visit the Harold C. Simmons Comprehensive Cancer Center at UT Southwestern (Simmons). Long recognized as one of the nation’s top research facilities, Simmons is also one of the premier cancer treatment facilities in the country. And at Simmons, patient care is a team effort.
The secret to Simmons’ success, is its nationally-recognized Supportive Care Program. The Program employs a collaborative approach to patient care involving a specially trained multidisciplinary team of cancer-specific psychologists, social workers, dietitians, chaplains, and behavioral scientists offering state-of-the-art therapeutic approaches tailored to the individual needs of patients and their families.
Simmons Cancer Center is committed to treating the whole person-not just the disease. The Supportive Care Program is evidence of that commitment.
