Date and Time: November 18, 17:00 - 18:30 CET Format: Webinar Join us for an insightful and essential webinar on advancing psychosocial care for pediatric oncology across Europe. Despite progress, there is a pressing need to develop robust models of psychosocial support for children, adolescents, and young adults (CAYA) with cancer, along with their families. In this session, experts from Ireland, who have successfully established a National Model of Care for Psycho-Oncology Services, will share their experience in creating a framework that enhances psychosocial care delivery in this field.

- Learn about Ireland’s National Model of Care for Psycho-Oncology, specifically tailored for children, adolescents, and young adults.
- Discover the collaborative process undertaken to bridge professional expertise with patient organization advocacy.
- Gain insights into actionable steps and key challenges involved in implementing and sustaining multidisciplinary care models.
Speakers:
- Dr. Helen Greally - Clinical Lead in Psycho-Oncology, NCCP and Cancer Care West
- Dr. Chiara Besani - Paediatric Principal Clinical Psycho-Oncologist
- Laura Cullinan - CEO, Childhood Cancer Ireland, and Parent of a Cancer Survivor
This is an invaluable opportunity to gain knowledge from leading figures in pediatric psycho-oncology and to explore ways to integrate this model of care into practical settings across Europe.
