Description of CME Course
Cancer survivors who complete their active treatment typically need surveillance for recurrence and for the development of secondary cancers, monitoring for late effects of cancer treatment, as well as routine preventive and primary care. As this population with unique needs continues to grow, providers must understand the compelling need to provide coordinated, comprehensive and personalized care to these patients. This online activity will introduce, highlight and encourage participants to utilize the emerging body of guidelines, tools, and resources that are available to optimize the coordination and delivery of survivorship care. Participants will learn to recognize evidence-based screening, prevention and management strategies for potential long-term, late effects and how to tailor these for patients at varying risks for problems.
