Screening and Prevention – Empowering through Education

Posted on January 20, 2014 by admin


VIEW THE PRESENTATION

Presentation Description: 
Do you show up at your screening appointments wondering why you’re even there? Or maybe you haven’t gone at all and are worried you missed the memo? Screening and prevention can be a tricky subject because there isn’t a ‘one size fits all’ standard. This presentation provides an overview of exactly what screening is, why it’s important, who is at risk for what, and what you need to know to responsibly manage your health for years to come.

That’s why POGO created the Passport to Health and Survivor Care Plan Package, a tool that is specially customized to each survivor to help them learn about late effects they may be at risk for and keep track of treatment information. This workshop provided an overview of this innovative tool, how to get it and what you need to do to successfully manage your health for years to come.
