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. \nThis 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. \nThis 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. \nWhat You’ll Take Away\n📊 Evidence-Based Insights The latest research on health coaching effectiveness in cancer care\, primary care settings\, and population health\, so you can make the case to colleagues\, senior leadership\, or clients. \n🏥 Real NHS Implementation Strategies Learn from practitioners already integrating health coaching into NHS primary care and social prescribing. Discover what works\, what doesn’t\, and how to navigate the system. \n💡 Practical Tools & Frameworks Walk away with coaching techniques\, conversation frameworks\, and assessment tools you can use immediately\, whether with patients\, clients\, or in your own practice. \n🤝 Expert Access Live Q&A with 6 leading figures in health coaching and integrative medicine\, plus connection opportunities with fellow healthcare professionals and coaches. \n📜 Professional Development Earn 7 hours of CPD certification while staying at the cutting edge of preventative healthcare. \n🎬 Recording Access Can’t make it live?
