Abstract
Meet David. After smoking for 40 years, he was not surprised when, at age 56, he was diagnosed by computed tomography scan with lung cancer. He was scheduled for a lobectomy two weeks later at an urban academic medical center. His wife, a member of a local union, reached out for help to Guardian Nurses Healthcare Advocates, a patient advocacy firm providing services to her union.
