We have a patient that calls daily, sometimes multiple times during the day. He is undergoing chemotherapy for stage four cancer. June always takes his calls, speaking with him daily sometimes even 2-3 times a day. Without her caring telephone calls, I do not think this patient would be able to continue his treatment. She will call him at the end of the day before going home, even if it is 6pm after a long day of clinic to make sure all of his questions are answered.
