Helping patients and families bridge the gap between cancer and life after treatment
GBMC's philosophy is that survivorship begins at "hello." Comprehensive and continuous services are in place to support patients during treatment and help them transition to life after treatment. After cancer diagnosis, "normal life" is redefined and finding a "new normal" becomes the challenge. The Survivorship Program helps patients and families find their way through the emotional and physical aspects of this transition. At the completion of their treatment, patients are asked to ring the Survivorship bell in the Healing Garden as a symbol of their recovery.
As a GBMC cancer patient, you are eligible to receive a personalized Treatment Summary and Survivorship Care Plan.
Felicity Kirby, RN, BSN, OCN
Survivorship Coordinator
Felicity works as GBMC's Survivorship Coordinator. She helps patients and families better understand and prepare for life after cancer treatment and assists with any challenges they face during this transition. Felicity received her Associate's Degree in Nursing from Allegany Community College of Maryland and earned her Bachelor's Degree in Nursing from the University of Maryland.

Our Services
Patients and families are encouraged to meet with the Survivorship Coordinator following their last treatment. The Survivorship Coordinator will talk about what to expect in the short and long term and will address any questions and concerns.
Patients will receive a personalized Plan of Care and treatment summary. These provide a comprehensive outline of treatments that have been received over the course of their illness and additional information about follow up care. It also provides information on lifestyle changes that can be made to reduce the risk of cancer recurrence.
The Plan of Care also provides these pieces of important information:
- Date of diagnosis
- Type of cancer
- Pathology reports documenting the type and stage of cancer
- Places and dates of treatments
- Any problems that occurred during treatment
Survivorship Begins with Diagnosis
Joyce was diagnosed with fallopian tube cancer in the summer of 2014, and her journey to recovery had a difficult beginning. She was referred to a local hospital for chemotherapy, but her calls to schedule appointments went unanswered.
