Rebecca Weeks
Support Services Coordinator | Northern Region - Auckland & Northland

1131DSC02168_webversion Being diagnosed with a blood cancer or related condition is a life-changing experience for both the patient and their family and friends. By providing practical, emotional and educational support, I hope to enable people to manage the consequences and impact of a diagnosis before, during and after treatment.

This role enables me to offer support (by phone, email or in person) and help address individual needs or concerns of anyone affected by a blood cancer or related condition.
