E43: Catherine Holborn and Emma Hallam - Survivorship and Late Effects of Cancer Treatment

Show Notes

Jo McNamara and Naman Julka-Anderson catch up with Catherine Holborn and Emma Hallam as part of the Living With and Beyond Cancer Series (Part 11).

 

To use this podcast as CPD, look at these reflection points: 

1) What does survivorship mean to you and how do you support palliative care patients to access late effects resources? 

2) How do you explain treatment side effects to your patients? How could you improve your terminology and encompass long term side effects? 

3) Does your department have a late effects service, if not what services or support is available locally for patients? 

4) Watch Emma’s You Tube late effects video and reflect on your learning from this.
