Key Services

The Genesys Hurley Cancer Institute stands on the combined strength of the Genesys and Hurley medical facilities, in collaboration with Cancer and Hematology Centers of Michigan, bringing advanced cancer treatment services, technologies and quality-of-life programs to one convenient location, close to home. Everything we do is focused on helping patients feel better, faster.

FOOD PANTRY: We are happy to announce the opening of the GHCI Food Pantry. This is made possible with grants from the Community Foundation of Greater Flint and the American Cancer Society. Continued support will come from community donations and future grants.

TRANSPORTATION AND EMERGENCY PATIENT CARE SERVICES: These services assist patients who are struggling to get to appointments, keep their utilities on or manage emotional needs. These situations are always challenging, especially when dealing with the added burden of cancer.

Additionally, quality-of-life services and classes are open to all cancer patients, cancer survivors and caregivers in and around Genesee County. These include social, dietitian and wellness services, such as cooking classes, yoga, meditation, nutrition, scrapbooking, journaling and more.

Everything we do is focused on helping patients feel better, faster.
