Cancer Prevention & Screening Program

In partnership with Cancer Care Ontario, the Hamilton Niagara Haldimand Brant (HNHB) Regional Cancer Program (RCP) oversees the delivery of cancer services, including prevention and screening services.

Many types of cancer can be prevented, and early detection of some cancers can improve your chances of recovery.

Where to Find Us

The Regional Cancer Prevention and Screening Program offices are located on the second floor of Lakeview Lodge at the Juravinski Hospital and Cancer Centre.

Take the elevators on the main floor entrance, across from the Information Desk at the Juravinski Cancer Centre, to the basement. Turn left off the elevators and follow the corridor until it ends. Go right up the incline until you reach a fork in the corridor. Turn left, following signs for the M Wing (look for the blue line on the wall). The elevator for the Regional Cancer Program office is located on the right hand side. Take the elevator to the second floor.
