The COVID-19 pandemic has affected every corner of American cancer care—including psychosocial services. On this mini-podcast, we explore how patients are dealing with the "new normal,” and how oncology social workers, psychologists, and psychiatrists are working to help them through an unprecedented time.

Guest: Jeffrey Kendall, PsyD, LP, Director of Oncology Support Services, University of Minnesota Medical Center
