Educational Webinars
As part of the work in strengthening the workforce in Oncology, a series of educational webinars have been designed, with specific focus on physical therapy skills for working with people with bone metastases, and people with lung cancer, and communication skills around discussing sexuality and intimacy with people impacted by cancer. Presented by a range of academic experts, the webinars are being hosted from October 2020 - October 2022 and provide oncology clinicians with opportunities to refresh and update skills in these aspects of care.
