Julie McCrossin: 3 things we can do to improve the physical and emotional recovery of Head and Neck Cancer patients

Julie McCrossin, Broadcaster, MC, Cancer Survivor and Community Educator, shared a post on LinkedIn:

“Here are 3 things we can do to improve the physical and emotional recovery of Head and Neck Cancer patients.

1. Offer visual education about treatment and scanning technology, such as radiation therapy.
2. Establish Late Effects Clinics to treat side effects long term.
3. Use PROMS, Patient Reported Outcome Measures in routine clinical care to address individual issues of patient concern quickly and to collect clinical data on large groups of patients to inform improvements in care.

In this video for World Head and Neck Cancer Day 2024 on 27 July, patients and clincians from the UK and Australia explain how we can achieve these goals.”
