The directory contains information on breast health, breast cancer and a comprehensive listing of breast cancer resources. This directory is free of charge and also is available on our web sites in a searchable database at www.komen-houston.org and www.mdanderson.org. The mission of Susan G. Komen for the Cure is to save lives and end breast cancer forever by empowering people, ensuring quality care for all and energizing science to find the cures.

  • A Survey of Financial Aspects, Staffing and Service Trends of Music Therapy in Hospice Programs
    A SURVEY OF FINANCIAL ASPECTS, STAFFING AND SERVICE TRENDS OF MUSIC THERAPY IN HOSPICE PROGRAMS Melissa Amy Hirokawa, M.M., MT-BC Western Michigan University, 2006 The purpose of this study was to compile quantitative data to determine how hospice programs fund music therapy services, and to identify staffing trends (number of music therapists and employment status) and service trends (caseload, frequency, and length of sessions) for hospice programs with music therapy in the Great Lakes Region. Thirty-six music therapists completed the survey and qualified for the study. Participants were asked to complete a one-time online survey with 26 questions pertaining to basic demographic and staffing information, music therapy services provided and session information, and funding. Results of this survey indicate that there are differences in the ways that traditional hospice services and music therapy services are funded, that the number of music therapists does not appear to influence service trends, that employment status does appear to influence service trends, and that size of the hospice program influences staffing and service trends. The author was unable to determine if service area influenced staffing or service trends as there was significant overlap in service areas. It is hoped that this study will clarify financial and logistical issues related to initiating and expanding music therapy services within hospice programs.

  • Closing the Gaps in Children's Palliative and End of Life Care
    Gap Analysis and Mapping 2017: Closing the Gaps in Children’s Palliative and End of Life Care. Informing our strategy. Executive Summary One chance to get it right – Are we getting it right? Fraser et al 2015 set out an overarching vision for the Yorkshire and Humber region for specialist children’s palliative care (SPPCY report). This current document is about making that vision a reality. It sets out the case for service transformation to ensure that there is an equitable high quality children’s palliative care service for all those who need it regardless of geographical location or diagnosis. In the region there are estimated to be in excess of 3740 children living with life-limiting or life- threatening conditions and of these approximately 270 die each year. Children with life-limiting conditions (LLC) often require numerous hospital admissions and, in the locations where community nurses are not available 24 hours a day 7 days a week, there is an increased risk of additional, unnecessary hospital admissions, especially towards end of life. This may not be what children and their families want and it has a financial cost to the NHS which could be avoided. The cost of a hospital admission for a paediatric critical care bed ranges from £849 per day to £4824 per day (NICE 2016). Additionally there is social, emotional and financial cost to families, including loss of working days and income as well as the psychological distress to the child and family. However, it is recognised that there are times when a hospital stay is unavoidable and necessary.
