What to expect: information for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people is a series of two resources that form part of Cancer Council Australia’s Yarn For Life initiative.

Checking for cancer – what to expect: Information for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people who might have cancer explains what to expect when you’re getting checked out. From the doctor’s visit, having tests and where to get help and support.

Cancer – what to expect: Information for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people who have cancer explains what to expect before, during and after treatment, and outlines the care that should be offered.

The resources are suitable for patients, carers, family and community members.
