Resources
RESOURCES for patients, caregivers and health professionals. This includes international clinical guidelines which include information on types of cancer and treatments. There are links for resources, support groups in South Africa. There are also specific resources for young adults and adolescents. Cancer care cannot ignore the spotlight needed on access to medicines for those in resource-limited settings, and importantly the first hadn’t experience patients. Please feel free to contact me if you other resources are available that we can expand on.
