Beyond the Patient: Engaging Carers in Cancer Conversations

About this session
When it comes to clinical conversations, focusing solely on the patient can unintentionally sideline their most trusted support. This webinar moves beyond theory to equip clinicians with practical communication skills for bringing carers into the conversation. Learn how to shift from permission-seeking to inclusive practice, manage consent boundaries, and create space for carers without compromising patient autonomy.
