Join us on Sep 17 at 12:00 pm for "Preventing Ovarian Cancer" with Cailey Crawford

👉 https://loom.ly/x5YQBxQ

Ovarian cancer is the most fatal women’s cancer. One in two women diagnosed do not live to see another five years. There is no screening or diagnostic test, there is no vaccine, and the pap test does not screen for ovarian cancer. Symptoms are vague, common and non-specific and it is diagnosed in advanced stages. This session will help equip nurse practitioners in Ontario with the knowledge and tools to play a greater role in ovarian cancer prevention.

You'll learn about:

• The role of primary care providers in ovarian cancer prevention
• Missed opportunities in the ovarian cancer prevention pathway
• Resources for primary care settings developed by the Ovarian Cancer Prevention Taskforce (OCPTF)
• Opportunities to help and ways to support the work of the OCPTF

Meet Deane Mulcahy, Nurse Practitioner at the LHSC Verspeeten Family Cancer Centre.

Deane works in the Systemic Therapy Assessment Clinic (STAC), a nurse practitioner-led clinic that supports cancer patients receiving systemic therapy by assessing symptoms and providing timely treatment outside of regular physician appointments, helping them avoid unnecessary Emergency Department visits.

For Deane, her time in the clinic has been fulfilling not only professionally, but personally too. Read her story: https://www.lhsc.on.ca/news/this-has-truly-been-the-most-rewarding-role-ive-held-as-a-nurse-practitioner-a-staff
