Cancer Center Series: Surviving and Thriving After Breast Cancer – A Roadmap

A breast cancer diagnosis is life-changing and can bring physical and emotional challenges. Research has shown that breast cancer survivors who adopt healthy lifestyle behaviors have improved health, well-being, and quality of life. These behaviors include healthy eating habits, regular exercise, stress management, social connections, good sleep habits, and avoiding risky substances such as drugs and alcohol.

In this program, we will review these recommendations and lead an interactive conversation to empower patients to adopt healthy behaviors. We will also be joined by a patient who will share how she adopted these lifestyle habits after her breast cancer diagnosis.

Time: 12:00 PM – 1:00 PM EST

Speakers:
Amy Comander, MD, DipABLM
Dana E. Haggett, MS, RN, FNP-BC
Elizabeth Abraham, BSN, RN
