​Cancer Rehabilitation and Survivorship (CRS)

The CRS program services can help you:
• manage the late and long-term side-effects of your cancer treatment
• improve your function
• improve your health and quality of life

• get better with help from a large rehabilitation team

Your doctor (oncologist or family doctor) can suggest the CRS program for 
many reasons. Below is a list of reasons for a referral to the CRS program:
• loss of range of motion
• weakness
• feelings of pain, tingling, numbness
• balance issues and falls
• fatigue (feeling tired)
• lymphedema (swelling)
• changes in appetite and diet concerns
• trouble with activities of daily living
• help with returning to work or school
• sexual health (less interest in sex, vaginal dryness, pain with sex, body 
image issues)
• psychosocial-help (emotions and coping, relationship changes, fear of 
cancer recurrence)
• “brain fog” (poor memory, attention or focus)
• help with exercise
• nutrition advice to help manage cancer-related side effects
