ATLANTIC, IA – Officials with Cass Health in Atlantic, Tuesday (today) announced a new partnership with Above + Beyond Cancer, an Iowa‑based nonprofit dedicated to elevating the mind, body, and spirit of individuals impacted by cancer. Together, the organizations will expand access to evidence‑based programs designed to support cancer survivors, patients, and caregivers.

To celebrate the partnership and provide community members an opportunity to learn more, Cass Health will host an open house on Monday, February 16, from noon to 2 p.m. in Conference Room 2. Cancer survivors, patients, caregivers, and anyone impacted by cancer are all encouraged to attend.

Founded in 2011 by Oncologist Dr. Richard Deming, Above + Beyond Cancer offers a wide range of free programs. These include fitness classes, meditation, cycling, nutrition education, urban pole walking, book club, and a cancer education series. The Above + Beyond Cancer Hotel Program also provides free lodging for cancer patients in Iowa who must travel more than 50 miles to receive treatment.

Above + Beyond Cancer’s mission is to elevate the mind, body, and spirit of patients, survivors, and caregivers throughout the cancer journey—an effort that aligns closely with Cass Health’s commitment to supporting patients and the greater community.
