Outreach kit for hospitals, libraries, navigators, and cancer nonprofits

These assets are built for real workflows: a patient leaving a first oncology visit, a caregiver organizing rides, a navigator helping with a denial, a librarian stocking a health shelf, or a clinician reviewing high-risk side-effect wording.

Best link targets

These are the URLs to offer first when asking a hospital, library, navigator program, nonprofit, or support group to add Cancer Explained to a resource page.

Short website blurb

Cancer Explained offers free, plain-language cancer education, printable patient handouts, Spanish resources, and practical tools for patients, caregivers, clinics, public libraries, navigators, and support groups.

Linkable asset groups

Hospital navigator packet

Start-here handouts, appointment packets, urgent-call sheets, and cost scripts for new-patient folders and discharge planning.

Public library pack

Consumer-health shelf handouts, screening and prevention one-pagers, Spanish handouts, and QR sheets for community displays.

Financial navigation templates

Appeal and call worksheets for patients facing denials, prior authorization problems, pharmacy barriers, or unclear bills.

Clinical trial decision support

Plain-language sheets for consent, visit schedules, standard-treatment comparisons, costs, and patient priorities.

Reviewer-ready safety workflow

A clinician checklist for high-risk side-effect pages. It helps reviewers document review without implying review before it happens.

Outreach standards

Cancer Explained resources are educational and source-linked. They are not medical advice, they do not replace local clinic instructions, and they should not be presented as reviewed by a qualified healthcare professional unless a named reviewer has checked the exact page.

The best outreach use is specific: link to the handout that solves a workflow problem, invite corrections, and ask what patients are still missing.
