Digitally Empowered® and digital sherpa®
Digitally Empowered® and digital sherpa® are complimentary programs aimed to help cancer patients (mainly 65 and older) and their families become more tech-savvy.
Research suggests that many older cancer patients lack basic Internet and social media skills, creating an obstacle for them when they attempt to go online to access information about their illnesses, or to obtain support from other patients and advocacy groups. Often they are overwhelmed with the abundance of information and don’t know how or where to find the help they need.
We want to change that.
We believe all patients, regardless of age and technical ability, should have equal access to health information to make the best decisions about their care. Learn more with the links below and by watching this short explainer video:
