Patient and Family Education Room: 
The Patient and Family Education Center at the Moores Cancer Center offers a comfortable, caring atmosphere where everyone is invited to learn more about various cancers and treatments. Books, pamphlets, brochures, videos and the internet are all available for patients and their families to use. The center also supplies donated crocheted hats and lap blankets for the hair-challenged and chilly patients. Staffed by understanding volunteers who are either cancer survivors or have been affected by cancer through family and friends, the Patient and Family Education Center welcomes patients and their families to ask questions and learn more about cancer.
