Does anyone know if the ACS provides respite and patient support for hospitalized patients? Family stays overnight with incapacitated cancer patient family member, yet the family is extremely exhausted. Needs help. Thanks for any advice.

    Hello KAG,

    You may want to contact ACS's National Cancer Information Center for information about respite care resources.  You can call 1.800.227.2345, where Cancer Information Specialists are available around the clock every day of the week to speak with you. You can also utilize the Live Chat feature Monday through Friday between 7am-6:30pm CST on www.cancer.org.
