The 4th edition of Pediatric Radiation Oncology (Virtual) Course (PedROC 4.0) – The Dorcas Cancer Foundation

The Dorcas Cancer Foundation shared on LinkedIn: 

We’re excited to announce the 4th edition of Pediatric Radiation Oncology (Virtual) Course (PedROC 4.0).

PedROC is a groundbreaking initiative that has continued to bridge the gap in access to specialized training for pediatric cancer treatment in sub-Saharan Africa. Since its launch in July 2021, the program has trained over 1,000 healthcare professionals, including Radiation Oncologists, Pediatric Oncologists, Pediatricians, Medical Physicists, Radiation Therapists, Radiologists, Pathologists, Nurses, and more, from 61+ countries across sub-Saharan Africa and beyond

This edition of PedROC will focus on Fundamentals of Play Therapy/Child Life Specialist Interventions for Pediatric Cancer and Psychosocial Support and Counseling for Pediatric Oncology.

Play therapy and child life specialist interventions are relatively uncommon in Sub-Saharan Africa, and training opportunities remain limited. This session is a unique chance to learn from experts and deepen your understanding of these impactful approaches to supporting children and families during the cancer journey.

This course is open to:
•           Psychologists
•           Nurses
•           Doctors
•           Psychiatrists
•           Behavioral and Play Therapists
•           Individuals interested in learning about these practices (no prior experience required!)

Don’t miss this opportunity to gain valuable insights and connect with a like-minded community passionate about improving pediatric oncology outcomes.
