Exercise in Cancer Care

The Exercise in Cancer Care position statement endorses evidence-based guidelines and applies them to the Australian setting. The statement is intended to provide guidance to all members of the multidisciplinary cancer team and calls for exercise to be viewed as an adjunct therapy and incorporated into routine cancer care.

This position statement was launched in May 2018. It was updated in December 2020 to include greater emphasis on the triad recommendation of “Discuss, Recommend and Refer”, less prescriptive language and new images to illustrate exercise in a variety of settings.
