Upcoming Live Webinar

Psycho-Oncology: Supporting the Mental Health of Oncology Patients
 

Psycho-Oncology: Supporting the Mental Health of Oncology Patients

Melissa Holt, DNP, PMHNP-BC

December 3 • 12:00 – 1:00 PM EST

Psycho-oncology can improve the overall well-being of cancer patients by reducing psychological distress and enhancing coping skills. The psycho-oncology team usually consists of various disciplines such as psychiatrists, social workers, psychologists, and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners. Interventions can include psychotherapy, psychiatric medication management, education, and community resource planning. This webinar will provide an overview of the field of psycho-oncology and the various interventions that we provide to improve a patient's quality of life while receiving cancer care.

Cancer touches all of our lives. For many Native communities, fears of cancer risk from environmental sources beyond their control are common. Some researchers, usually unaware of Native community concerns, can harbor the perspective that Native communities could be fruitful populations for studying the genetic risks of cancer. This webinar will help both sides of this chasm understand the other's point of view, hopefully leading to more effective communications and priority setting.
