what do we do
|
|
|
|
|
The
Foundation is committed to providing assistance for families of
patients with brain cancer and brain tumours,
and also to the advancement of the treatment and research of these
conditions. Our aim is to establish a world-class research facility here
in Perth, Western Australia for brain tumours and brain cancers.

|
|
|
|
|
|
The
Foundation is establishing this online resource centre where patients and families
can source information regarding options for treatment. Other services
provided by qualified practitioners to help
families cope with the added stresses and traumas resulting from diagnosis
and treatment include:
|
|
|
|
- Family and grief counselling
- Advocacy and intervention assistance
- Vocational and employment- related
counselling and job search assistance
- Respite Care for carers
- Support groups for patients and their
families
- Financial assistance and counselling
where the costs of treatment are prohibitive
|
|
|
|
We fully intend that more families will benefit from these integral and unique services, as the James Crofts Hope Foundation Inc. continues to expand across Australia and ultimately across the world.
