Psychosocial
Aspects of Cancer Survivorship
This Continuing Education program
is intended to educate cancer care professionals about the psychosocial issues
faced by cancer survivors, to help create follow-up to cancer care in which
the psychosocial aspect
is fully
integrated,
and to help ensure that no survivor who is distressed goes unrecognized and
untreated. It
is jointly sponsored by the University of South Florida and APOS, with support
from the
Lance Armstrong
Foundation (LAF), helping people with cancer get the support they need to live
strong. The
program has been developed through a generous educational grant from the LAF.
Continuing Education Credits
At this time, APOS is not offering Continuing Education credits for these
webcasts. Upon completion of the test and evaluation, you will only
be able to print a certificate of completion from APOS for your records.
Presentations
The objectives of this program are for participants to be able to:
understand the psychosocial issues faced by cancer survivors;
rapidly identify the survivors who are distressed;
and
treat distressed survivors or refer them to appropriate counseling resources.
