A diagnosis of breast cancer can be overwhelming. As a Nurse Navigator Kari works one-on-one with a patient to minimize their anxiety and stress by helping them “navigate” through the health care system. She helps educate patients on their diagnosis, explains and coordinates treatment options and improves communication between patients and their physicians and caregivers. She assists the patient in working through the emotional aspects of a diagnosis, and can connect them with community support groups and resources. Kari is a Registered Nurse and a certified Breast Navigator in diagnostic imaging and cancer treatment. She is someone the patient can call anytime for assistance throughout the entire treatment process.
