CarePath After Hours Program
In partnership with CAREchart@home and Cancer Care Ontario, St. Michael’s has developed an after-hours telephone service to support you in managing your cancer-related treatment symptoms. The service can also be used by patients at St. Joseph’s Health Centre.
The goal of the after-hours symptom management phone line is to help you better manage your symptoms at home, preventing you from needing to visit the emergency room. The CAREchart@home team will inform your doctor about the telephone service provided to you.
The CAREchart@home symptom management phone line is intended for use only after clinic hours and not during regular clinic hours. During the weekdays you should contact the Medical Daycare Unit that is providing your care.
