For over 25 years, RCCS has been dedicated to helping cancer patients and their families receive the best medical care to help them recover from their dreaded illness. RCCS currently oversees the cases of over 3,100 cancer patients worldwide. With 63 current cases in Crown Heights alone, with many more Shluchim and their communities worldwide!
Very often when a patient is Chas V’Shalom diagnosed, their lives are literally hanging in the balance. One or two days can be the difference between life and death. The worst thing for the patient is not having immediate access to the best care and specialists because they lack the guidance and connections, or because they cannot afford access to the proper care.
Enter RCCS. RCCS acts as a liaison and advocate for the patient, helping to guide them through the confounding maze of physicians, hospitals, and treatments, and pay insurance premiums for those that cannot afford to pay. But more than that: This organization, with its unparalleled connections to the top specialists in the country, procures appointments to the top doctors in the field.
Cancer is a terrible, horrifying, and life-changing disease. RCCS makes sure that our community can fight it. They deal with each case, they provide advocacy, they provide financial backing, they provide emotional support from the very first vital days until the very end, no matter what. RCCS makes sure the members of our community are not left out in the cold in dealing with this dreadful machalah.
