Patient Navigator
Patient navigators work with your physicians to identify and organize your care to best fit your individual needs. Your navigator is a single point of contact for you and can help you during the diagnostic process, schedule appointments and help you understand your disease and treatment options. The program is free of charge. The Branson patient navigators are available to all cancer patients, and can be reached by calling 417-348-8032.
Cantwell Resource Center
The Cantwell Resource Center is a resource library for you and your support network. Information is available to guide you through every stage of your journey, from diagnosis through treatment and beyond.
Kelly's Healing Garden
The peaceful outdoor setting of Kelly's Healing Garden provides emotional and spiritual healing for our patients, their friends and their families. A guardian angel sculpture overlooks the quiet garden space so visitors can rest and reflect. The garden is named in the memory of cancer patient Kelly Jo Phillips, who passed away in 1988 after a two-year fight with the disease. Kelly was diagnosed when she was 16. Her father, Bob Phillips, served as CEO of what was then Skaggs Regional Medical Center for 10 years, retiring in 2006.
Mastectomy & Lumpectomy Supplies
At CoxHealth, we know how important it is to have a knowledgeable and understanding person help you select your personal mastectomy items in a private and comfortable environment. We offer mastectomy supplies and other necessities, including soft camisoles to wear immediately following breast surgery, a wide selection of breast prostheses, partial prostheses for women who have undergone lumpectomy and bras to fit every wardrobe need. These supplies are free of charge to patients at Cox Medical Center Branson as the result of a Susan G. Komen grant.
