LMICS Annual Forum 2024 - Sexuality & Cancer Care

LMICS held their Annual Forum in August 2024 with an emphasis on Sexuality and Cancer Care: sexual health, expression, intimacy and wellbeing which was well-received.

This event was for any person supporting patients in their cancer care, with the opportunity to ask questions to our panel of 5 speakers:

• Facilitated by A/Prof Safeera Hussainy – Senior Pharmacy Research Manager at Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre, Adjunct Associate Professor at Monash University and Honorary Principal Fellow at University of Melbourne.
• Naveena Nekkalapudi – Consumer Speaker
• Julie McGirr – Clinical Nurse Specialist, Cancer Council Victoria
• Craig Millard – Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia, Cancer Specialist Nurse at Mildura Base Public Hospital
• Dr. Sabine Roithmaier – Medical Oncologist at Bendigo Regional Cancer Centre, Bendigo Health

Post event, LMICS worked with the panel with some added suggestions from other attendees, to create a list of useful resources for anyone supporting patients in their cancer journey. Download the resource here.
