Cancer Survivorship Workshop
What Should You Do After You Ring the Bell?
South Carolina Oncology Associates’ cancer survivorship workshop gives survivors who have finished treatment the information and resources they need to answer this question. The goal is to promote healthy lifestyles and prevent recurrence in patients with a history of cancer. This workshop takes place in the lower level conference room at our office in Columbia and is open to all patients who have completed treatment, regardless of when it was completed, whether it was last month, last year, or earlier.
94% of participants reported they are highly likely to apply what they learned at the workshop in meaningful ways.
