Rochelle Prosser: Fierce Mom of a Pediatric Cancer Survivor, Champion of Patient Rights in Healthcare Legislation, Explainer of Cancer X Moonshot, and Navigator Extraordinaire
Welcome to Everything Cancer! Today, we’re joined by Rochelle Prosser, a powerhouse in patient advocacy and cancer navigation who’s making waves in cancer survivorship:
She is the founder of Orchid Health Solutions and Prosser Cancer Library, dedicated to innovation, dignity, and the dismantling of disparity in cancer care delivery.
We find part of her motivation is deeply personal, in her daughter's own battle with cancer—an especially poignant story during Childhood Cancer Month, while also supporting her spouse in his own cancer diagnosis and journey.
Rochelle is on the front lines of shaping health policy, protecting patient privacy, and ensuring that every voice is heard.
She gives a shout-out to Environmental Services. Sept 8 - 14 2024, is Environmental Services Week in recognition of their vital role in patient care.
Get ready to be inspired by Rochelle’s motivation and insights as she unpacks the complexities of healthcare legislation and the groundbreaking Cancer X Moonshot.
