Getting Quality Medical Care
CancerCare and United Jewish Appeal (UJA) Federation of New York have collaborated to provide educational materials sensitive to the special needs of the Russian-speaking Jewish community in New York. The American medical system is made up of highly trained doctors and health care professionals, advanced technology, medications, and surgical procedures. People looking for help with a chronic illness or advanced disease may find this system overwhelming. This series of informational chapters has been created to help you get quality medical care.
All chapters listed below are available in PDF format in both English and Russian. Please note that the file size for each PDF document is quite large, and may take a number of minutes to open or save on your computer.
