Why This Course Matters
Cancer diagnosis and treatment impact not only the physical health of patients but also their emotional, psychological and social well-being. Patients often experience anxiety, fear, isolation and caregiver dependency during the course of illness.
Healthcare professionals and caregivers play a crucial role in addressing these psychosocial needs through effective communication, emotional support and culturally sensitive caregiving practices.
This programme aims to enhance the capacity of healthcare workers, social workers and caregivers by providing them with practical knowledge and socio-emotional support strategies to improve patient well-being and caregiver resilience in oncology settings.
✔ Improve patient communication skills
✔ Understand caregiver stress & burnout
✔ Support emotional well-being in cancer care
