Why the "Geri" in #GeriOnc matters?
Older Adults undergoing High-Risk Cancer Surgery: 29% died within 1 year, 30% of time following surgery was spent away from home. Those discharged to a facility: 42% dead at 1 year with 44% of time away from home.

Our theme for February: #breastcancer & older women 👵
Here at @NABCOP_news we think this is a pretty important topic! That's why this month, we look into what's different about older women & #breastcancer, from diagnosis->treatment @BreastCancerNow @ABSGBI @HQIP @MacmillanCymru
