Supporting Cancer Survivors to Address Fatigue and Weight Problems

Inspiring, Motivating and Guiding for Change

The Australian Cancer Survivorship Centre, Cancer Council Victoria, Cancer Nurses Society of Australia and the Clinical Oncology Society of Australia presented a free interactive webinar to explore allied health professionals’ role in supporting positive lifestyle changes, including diet and exercise, among cancer survivors.

Facilitated by Prof Ray Chan (Chair of COSA’s Survivorship Group, Director of Caring Futures Institute and Professor of Cancer Nursing, Flinders University), it was an insightful program centred around a cancer survivor’s experience, with a dietitian, exercise physiologist and nurse sharing their expertise.
