How to Communicate Effectively with a Cancer Patient?

Effective communication is key to providing meaningful support. It's important to listen actively and avoid offering unsolicited advice. Patients may have days when they are more open to talking and days when they need space, so being sensitive to their needs is crucial. Asking open-ended questions can encourage the patient to share their feelings and thoughts.
