Helpful Resources

During your first appointment, you will have a chance to talk about your worries, concerns and ask questions. We want you to take part in your appointments and get the most out of a visit with your health care team. The brochure below Your Guide to CancerCare Manitoba also provides you with basic information to help prepare you for your first appointment.

Every attempt is made to mail the brochure to new patients before their first visit. If you didn’t receive a copy, please pick one up at any time at the CCMB Patient and Family Resource Centre (room 1016 - 675 McDermot Ave), the St. Boniface Site (O Block - 409 Taché Ave) or any of our Community Cancer Program sites.
