Primary Beneficiary THE JOAN KARNELL CANCER CENTER
The Joan Karnell Cancer Center at
Pennsylvania Hospital provides extraordinary
cancer care in the most supportive of
settings; we offer an interdisciplinary
approach to diagnosis, treatment, research
and education. Services include cancer
prevention, education, screening, risk
evaluation, research, diagnostics,
treatment, support, rehabilitative care,
palliative care, end of life management and
survivorship programs. Because the
experience of cancer is already expensive,
even for those insured, we provide all
supportive care services at no cost to the
patient. Supportive care services include
nutritional counseling and programs,
palliative care program, cancer genetics,
cancer clinical trials, psycho-oncology
program, spiritual counseling, art and music
therapy, shiatsu massage, geriatric oncology
program, and cancer survivorship. All funds
raised are directed to providing these
services to patients and families living with,
through and beyond a cancer diagnosis.
