Gilda's Club

Gilda's Club is a free support community for men, women and children of all ages living with cancer, and for their families and friends. Through Swedish Hospital's affiliation with Gilda's Club Chicago, patients can find continued support. For more information call 312-464-9900 or visit GildasClubChicago.org.

Look Good...Feel Better

One of the most important aspects of treating cancer is the healing process—emotional, psychological and spiritual. Look Good...Feel Better is a step-by-step program to assist cancer patients with appearance and health concerns during treatment. The program provides guidelines for skin care, makeup maintenance, new hair looks and caring for your nails.

The American Cancer Society partners with the hospital by donating new wigs to patients who experience hair loss during treatments. For many patients, following these recommendations helps maintain uplifted spirits. For more information call 773-878-8200, ext. 5437 or visit Cancer.org.
