A PROCLAMATION
CANCER REGISTRARS WEEK
WHEREAS: WHEREAS:
WHEREAS: WHEREAS: THEREFORE:
Cancer registrars are health care professionals who work closely with a health care team to meet the needs of patients through data collection and analysis. They evaluate the success of specific treatments and identify, plan, and implement cancer prevention and control activities; and
Data collected by cancer registrars, including patient demographics, anatomic cancer sites, stages of disease, treatments, and lifetime follow-ups, is used by physicians to monitor treatment and continuing care of patients. This data is also useful to epidemiologists in monitoring the cancer burden throughout Georgia and the nation; and
Cancer registrars throughout our state are committed to promoting the latest medical advances in the diagnosis and treatment of this devastating disease; and
Cancer Registrars Week recognizes the contributions that professional cancer registrars make in the field of allied health in our state; now
I, NATHAN DEAL, Governor of the State of Georgia, do hereby proclaim the week of April 6-1 0, 201 5, as CANCER REGISTRARS WEEK in Georgia and encourage all our citizens to recognize the importance of cancer registrars to public health efforts throughout the state.
In witness thereof, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the Seal of the Executive Department to be affixed this 2nd day of April in the year of our Lord two thousand fifteen.
