Lourdes’ Team Supports Cancer Survivors, Caregivers at American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life

A team that included Lourdes Health System employees, volunteers, patients and their families recently walked in The American Cancer Society’s (ACS) Relay for Life River Towns.

The event was held at Delran High School and honored those currently fighting or lost to cancer. Attendees enjoyed seated chair massage, health screenings and more at Lourdes’ community outreach tent.

Kathy Martorano, RN, OCN, an oncology nurse with Lourdes Medical Associates Hematology Oncology, was recognized at the event as a 2017 Healthcare Champion for her decades of work with cancer patients, especially those receiving chemotherapy.

To date, the event has raised approximately $45,000 to fund patient services.
