This course builds on the foundations of the original Breast Cancer Rehabilitation Course with a clinical focus on frequent chronic and late effects of BrCa treatments. While the original course primarily presented the acute issues patients deal with during and immediately following their medical treatments, this course targets how to thoroughly evaluate and treat the conditions that breast cancer patients most frequently develop once released from early medical care.
