Saint Raphael's maintains a lending library with an extensive collection of health and wellness related books, CDs, DVDs, videos, audiotapes, books on tapes and music. Borrowing is open to patients and loved ones. We have also developed a comprehensive resource manual to guide patients through the Saint Raphael Healthcare System and its oncology, wellness and support services, which provides answers to frequently asked questions.
We also offer ongoing educational workshops including:
- Freedom from Smoking Classes: Participants
improve coping strategies, learn how to make positive
behavioral changes and how to become non-smokers for good.
- I Can Cope: An educational course for adult patients,
family members and friends. Physicians, nurses, social
workers and other health professionals help participants
with selected aspects of their cancer experience by
increasing knowledge, positive attitudes and skills.
- Strength for Caring: An educational program for
caregivers that teaches loved ones how to care for people
with cancer - and themselves during a trying time.
