Cancer Survivorship: Allied health and nursing approaches – a focus on head and neck cancer
This webinar brought together nursing and allied health perspectives to strengthen survivorship care for people living with and beyond head and neck cancer. Participants explored the early, late, and long‑term effects of treatment, and learned how to apply evidence‑informed interventions to support functional, psychosocial, and nutritional outcomes.
Through multidisciplinary collaboration, the session highlighted the importance of care informed by lived experience, while also recognising the value of community‑based resources available to support survivors.
Together, we are building comprehensive survivorship pathways that go beyond treatment — empowering people to live well after cancer.
