Symptom Support is Central to Quality Cancer Care
Effective symptom management can transform the cancer experience. As treatments advance and survival rates improve, the focus is shifting: how do we help patients not just live longer, but live better? Evidence shows that proactive, integrative symptom support can improve treatment tolerance, quality of life, and potentially outcomes.
This isn’t about replacing oncology standards. It’s about enhancing them. From managing treatment side effects to addressing pain, fatigue, and psychological distress, evidence-based symptom support is becoming essential to comprehensive cancer care at every stage of the journey.
This conference brings together the latest research, clinical insights, and practical frameworks you need to advance symptom support in your practice. Whether you’re an oncologist, specialist nurse, allied health professional, or anyone working in cancer care, join us to explore how science, prevention, and compassionate approaches can improve patient experiences from diagnosis through survivorship.
