Survivorship Programs
At Baptist Cancer Center, cancer care goes beyond treatments and office visits. THRIVE exists to help you—physically, emotionally and spiritually—from the moment of diagnosis, through treatment, and on to your new life as a cancer survivor.
A Program to Help You Live Well
THRIVE is a comprehensive program designed to guide you through cancer treatment. The series includes classes, seminars and support groups that address nutrition, fitness, mental well-being and spirituality, as well as seminars to help you understand cancer genetics and manage the financial aspects of care.
THRIVE meets you the moment you enter our doors, whether you are newly diagnosed or have an existing diagnosis. We're here to walk with you through your journey.

You'll learn about THRIVE at your first Baptist Cancer Center appointment, and use this site to register for free online classes and events that interest you. The program addresses a variety of topics, including:
