LIFE Program – Supporting Kamloops Cancer Patients

June 6, 2023 @ 9:30 am - June 7, 2023 @ 3:30 pm

Free

We are excited to announce the first ever in-person InspireHealth LIFE Program in Kamloops, BC.

InspireHealth’s two-day LIFE Program provides patients with the essential foundations of health and wellbeing during cancer. Kamloops and surrounding area patients with all cancers – newly diagnosed, in treatment or post-treatment – are welcome to join.

This two-day in-person program is led by our team of supportive care clinicians including Physicians, Counsellors, Dietitians and Exercise Therapists. You will learn about stress reduction, sleep management, self-care, nutrition, exercise & movement, lymphatic & immune support, and health communication.

If you or someone you know has been affected by cancer, consider joining us for this foundational two-day program. Registration is free, spaces are limited.

On behalf of the RIH Foundation,  they  are delighted to tell you that through their partnership with Inspire Health and Kamloops Cancer Supportive Care Society, as well as a generous donation in memory of Kamloops cancer patient Jim Bowersock, Inspire Health is offering a pilot program, led by Dr. Hannah Nette on June 6 and 7 of Inspire Health’s 2-day supportive care Life program for cancer patients in the Kamloops area.  

The intention is to offer the program on a pilot basis with a view to customizing it to suit Kamloops and incorporating Kamloops professionals as part of the program delivery in the future. Our hope is that this will be a first in Kamloops and a series will follow.

The link to register and more information is in the poster below. Freely share this poster with anyone you believe would benefit from this specialized program being offered to cancer patients in Kamloops.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
