“Empower patients and let them know they can and do have a voice regarding their treatment.” — Jack Conroy, fellow young adult with lived experience #ayacsm
For LGBT+ AYAs, one of the most important things to do as a clinician is respect bodily autonomy, privacy, and the right of informed consent. “It takes extra steps for us to have dignity and privacy,” said Amur in today’s Symposia Session. #AYACancerCongress #canteenaotearoa
Chair of the TYA Committee at CCLG:CYPCA retweeted
Such a great question was posed to Dr Schilstra during the panel too: “what’s the one thing health professionals should ask an AYA to make a difference?” 🙌🏻
@CESchilstra - “It’s simple- ask me how school is going; ask if I have been seeing my friends” #AYACSM #AYACancerCongress
Always so great to see the fab survivor-scientist Dr Clarissa Schilstra @CESchilstra sharing her work 💪🏻 see here to read some of the research priority setting work Clarissa led in partnership w #AYA that underpinned this 👉🏻 liebertpub.com/doi/abs/10.10…
