Education & Prevention

CentraState Healthcare System offers the full spectrum of cancer care services, including prevention, diagnosis, treatment and wellness—all right here for you at CentraState.

We believe prevention and early detection are the first steps in the fight against cancer. That’s why we offer critical cancer screenings, education programs about cancer prevention and the latest cancer treatments, cancer risk assessment and counseling, healthy lifestyle classes, and integrative therapy programs. We also have primary care doctors who work with their patients, including cancer survivors, to keep them current on screenings, educate them on healthy lifestyle changes, and manage any ongoing health issues.
Education & Screenings
CentraState's Star and Barry Tobias Health Awareness Center (HAC) offers a variety of programs and services that focus on cancer awareness and prevention. These include:
  • free screenings for prostate, colorectal and skin cancers several times a year for the community. Our Women’s Health Center also offers digital mammography for early detection of breast cancer.
  • lectures by board-certified physicians who specialize in diagnosing and treating cancers
  • smoking cessation & prevention classes
  • integrative therapy programs — such as Lebed, yoga, Reiki, tai chi, rain drop treatment and massage — and exercise programs that are appropriate for patients being treated for or recovering from cancer.
Cancer Risk Assessment & Counseling
CentraState's Hereditary Oncology Prevention and Evaluation (HOPE) Program, offered in partnership with The Cancer Institute of New Jersey, is designed for individuals and families who are concerned about their risk of developing certain cancers. The program offers appropriate medical and genetic information and provides resources and support for those confronting cancer risk. It helps participants make informed decisions about their healthcare and shows them ways to monitor for possible cancer. The program team includes medical, gynecologic and surgical oncologists; geneticists; genetic counselors; nurse practitioners; social workers; psychologists; pathologists; radiologists and other health professionals.
 
Services available through the HOPE Program include:
  • Genetic counseling
  • Education
  • Risk assessment
  • Physical exam
  • Follow-Up planning
  • Psychosocial support
  • Genetic testing
  • Access to appropriate clinical studies
