Our Partnership Story

Partnering with Cancer Support Community filled a critical gap for our patients by combining our clinical expertise at Mosaic Cancer Center with Cancer Support Community’s strength in providing evidence-based emotional support, education, and survivorship resources. Our partnership aims to improve the overall patient experience, support, and quality of life throughout the cancer journey.

The Objective

 

Committed to delivering compassionate, patient-centered care across the entire cancer continuum, Mosaic Life Care aimed to provide enhanced emotional, psychosocial, and supportive care services for its patients and their families. However, opportunities to enhance patient engagement and overall experience were constrained.

The Challenges
 

To ensure that the emotional and psychosocial needs of their patients and caregivers were being met, Mosaic Life Care needed to solve 3 main challenges:

  1. Limited availability of structured, non-clinical support services for patients and caregivers  
  2. Gaps in access to ongoing emotional support, especially outside of clinical visits  
  3. Lack of standardized programming for survivorship, education, and peer support

The Solution
 

Mosaic Life Care partnered with Cancer Support Community as a Healthcare Partner to improve patients' overall experience, support, and quality of life throughout the cancer journey. Through this partnership, Mosaic Life Care has gained:

  • Access to professionally led support groups and counseling services  
  • Educational programming for patients, caregivers, and survivors  
  • Additional resources available to cancer center staff to support whole-person care
  • A trusted external partner to extend care beyond traditional clinical services

The care center has provided supportive programs resulting in more than 2,750 visits through CSC’s partnership, and that number continues to grow. The Mosaic Life Care team has confidence and pride that they are providing their patients with not only the best medical care but also supportive care.
