Lung Cancer Support Group Information Card

Ali Burgin, Advanced Pharmacist at Royal Surrey NHS Foundation Trust (RSCH), has worked with ALK Positive UK charity to design a credit card sized information card containing the specific lung cancer mutation patient support group details.  The card will be given out by pharmacists to patients at RSCH when they receive their first cycle of oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor medication.

 

If any other organisation would like to give this card to their patients please contact Debra Montague (chair of the Oncogene-  Driven Lung Cancer Patient Alliance) via email at [email protected] to receive printed copies (maximum 25 cards per order). Please include the name and full address of the person to receive these cards in the email.
