The COVID-19 pandemic has magnified the already widespread need for many improvements within our healthcare system. These improvements include bringing virtual support to patients during COVID-19 as many across Canada have witnessed increased demand like never before. Our mission with the COVID-19 Cancer Patient Support Hub ( the HUB ) is to bring support to cancer patients both virtually with resources and mental health resources and stress relief by helping patients with their daily needs, such as our subsidized taxi programme in certain regions. 

The COVID-19 Cancer Patient Support Hub is managed by a Task Force of non-for-profit patient groups across Canada providing cancer patient support. 

Our mission is to provide Canadians a wide variety of cancer patient supports to ensure they have access to mental wellness and practical support and information for the most urgent and immediate mental health and practical issues they are facing as a result of COVID-19. The COVID-19 Cancer Patient Support Hub includes mental health and wellness support, reliable information and resources, and practical support for meeting basic needs such as access to food delivery, travel support, and digital connectivity.

We are getting a lot of positive feedback about our HUB and the unique approach to complementary healthcare supports and we wish to continue and expand this support. 

We cannot do this without your help. Please consider donating to the HUB.

TESTIMONIALS: Hear what people are saying:

Testimonial # 1:  I am grateful.  The service has been of great help to me since I need to regularly attend the hospital to receive radiotherapy treatment. The service has been very supportive for my daily assistance since they assure me of safe transportation, keeping me from the possibility of contracting COVID19. The service is extremely punctual and efficient and complies with the anti covid 19 protocol. – Simon 

Testimonial # 2:    My 90-year-old father was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma in February of 2020.  In the beginning I was taking him to all his appointments, but between doctors, tests and treatments this task was overwhelming and making it very difficult for me to work. Since June of 2020, my father has been extremely fortunate to receive several taxi trips to and from Sunnybrook Hospital courtesy of All.Can Canada.  The All.Can Canada team supporting the taxi program for cancer patients are doing a fabulous job in booking and confirming our many taxi trips. I cannot stress how valuable this free service has been for our family. – Jennifer

Testimonial # 3: My mom takes my dad for chemotherapy. I was stuck finding a ride for them for their medical appointments. The service they were using got cancelled and other services were also cut due to COVID-19.  I don’t have a car and I was starting to get really worried because they are both seniors. Thankfully, I found the All.Can Canada Cancer Patient Support Hub. Not only are they able to provide this necessary service for people in need, but the taxi program support team are  professional, reliable and always ready to help. I don’t know what we would do without this service. – Cherry 

Testimonial # 4: I would like to offer my sincere thanks to the whole team for your invaluable support and assistance for the transport provided to me to go to St. Margaret Hospital for my Radiation Treatment. You’ve been instrumental and words can not do justice to describe the selfless service that you have provided to me. I am deeply thankful, always, for the amazing service you continue to provide to countless others like me who need support at a crucial time in our lives. – Zemin
