Survivorship Series – Transitions After Treatment
People with cancer are living longer due to improved care, screening and newer treatments. The term “cancer survivor” identifies a community of people with a history of cancer, either at the time of diagnosis, during or after treatment. The effects of cancer do not end when treatment ends. Starting on Wednesday, July 6, the Cancer Education Center will kick off a free Survivorship Webinar Series to address the needs of cancer survivors.
Staff of the Stephen and Barbara Slaggie Family Cancer Education Center, located in Rochester, Minnesota, will discuss the importance of a personal survivorship care plan to help you understand, discuss, and plan post-treatment with your healthcare providers. We will also discuss how to create and define a new life routine and why finding support is vital to life after treatment.
