Coping with Students with Cancer

Overview

Education Kit

The School Intervention Program at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center created an education kit because caring for a child with cancer or other blood disorders sometimes goes beyond the hospital and beyond what care family and friends can provide. It is crucial that a child receives the necessary support he or she needs in the classroom from teachers and classmates.

The information in this kit is aimed to help teachers create a safe environment for a student returning to school during and after treatment. The education kit also provides information and resources for the teacher regarding specific diagnosis and treatment plans.
