Support Lung Cancer Awareness Month This November
Submitted by admin on November 1, 2012 - 1:23pm
Lung Cancer Awareness Month takes place every November.
It aims to achieve better outcomes for lung cancer patients and their families through:
- raising public awareness of lung cancer
- educating those at risk about symptoms and early presentation
- signposting sources of information and support
- placing lung cancer firmly on the agenda of healthcare authorities
Late stage diagnosis, poor survival outcomes and few treatment choices make lung cancer a particularly devastating and emotional disease for people to deal with.
There are many negative perceptions and stigmas surrounding the disease, which indirectly impact on funding, resources and how individuals view the condition.
