A Simple Way to Keep Everything in One Place

Cancer treatment often involves appointments, medications, paperwork, and information from multiple providers. The Cancer Treatment Organizer (CTO) is a 13-pocket portable portfolio with labeled sections designed to keep everything neatly organized and within reach.

Created by Someone Who Understands

The Cancer Treatment Organizer was designed by a New Mexican cancer survivor who also runs a professional organizing business.

After experiencing firsthand how difficult it was to keep track of prescriptions, appointment times, and test results while moving between doctors, she created a system to keep everything in one place.

When one doctor needed information from another, she could simply open her organizer and provide what was needed.

Today, that same practical tool is available to help other New Mexico families stay organized during treatment.

Bringing Clarity to a Complex Process

Having one place to keep important information can:

  • reduce confusion
  • improve communication between providers
  • help patients feel more prepared and in control
  • make appointments more efficient
  • reduce stress

Who Can Use the Organizer

The Cancer Treatment Organizer is available to:

  • cancer patients
  • caregivers
  • family members supporting someone in treatment

Anyone managing the details of cancer care can benefit from having a simple system to stay organized.
