Nutritional Education

Rehabilitative Services
Cancer patients face physical, cognitive and emotional concerns that can affect their quality of life, no matter what type of cancer they have overcome or are currently facing. For many cancer patients, the aggressive, life-saving interventions may take a harsh toll on the human body. So while the fight against cancer is being won, patients may experience debilitating fatigue, pain, joint stiffness, weakness, emotional strain and limited mobility. Florida Hospital Flagler's Cancer Rehab Program meets the challenges facing cancer patients and survivors by providing state-of-the-art rehabilitation interventions while working closely with a patient’s oncology team. The rehabilitation team customizes each patient’s therapy program around their individual chemotherapy cycles, radiation treatments and surgery, helping patients avoid the impairment that often accompanies oncology treatments and returning them to their highest level of function.
