Health Professionals

The Cancer Council Tasmania is committed to working with health professionals to ensure cancer patients and their families get support and information to help them cope with the impact of cancer.

This section of the website includes The Cancer Council Australia position statements about cancer-related issues, NHMRC clinical practice guidelines for all major cancers and information about educational events.

Education sessions for health professionals in all areas of cancer care are being developed for 2007 and 2008. Some sessions are aimed at general practice, while others will focus on specialists and allied health professionals.
