UICC Enhances Cancer Care with Nutrition and Psycho-Oncology Support
Union for International Cancer Control shared on LinkedIn:
“A cancer diagnosis, along with the following treatment and care, often brings fear, confusion, physical discomfort, and emotional strain, affecting not only the person with cancer but also their family.
Without supportive services in place, these needs may remain unaddressed, impacting quality of life, successful treatment, and recovery.
Through UICC’s Technical Fellowships programme, Dr. Chau Quyen Tran, Head of Nutrition and Dietetics Department, at the Hanoi Oncology Hospital in Vietnam, a UICC member organisation, and Dr. Diane Andrea Ndoli, Clinical and Radiation Oncologist at the Rwanda Military Hospital, are helping integrate nutrition and psycho-oncology into essential cancer services, responding to gaps in emotional, nutritional and psychological support.
