CCF adopts an integrated hospital-community-home service model to offer a spectrum of critical services to
our beneficiaries.
In theHospitals
CCF helps children who are newly diagnosed with cancer and undergoing active treatment with their hospital
experiences. We offer emotional, financial and social support, with a focus on therapeutic play and psychotherapy
for the children, and support activities for their caregivers. Our caseworkers and counsellors are sited in
KKWomen’s and Children’s Hospital (KKH) and the National University Hospital (NUH) to work alongside our medical
partners in the paediatric oncologywards.
In theCommunity
With more children surviving childhood cancer, the CCF Community Social Work Team provides continual care to help
enhance thequalityof life for survivors.Wehelpchildren return toschool andsupport childrenaffectedbya familymember

and their families.
In theHomes of theChildren
When a child is at the end stage of his/her life, it is a tremendously challenging time for the dying child and the family
members. Palliative and bereavement support are critical services provided by CCF professionals to improve the quality
of life of theaffected families.
