Join Karmanos Cancer Institute’s Physical Activity for Cancer Survivors Program and the Michigan Cancer Consortium for a live CME educational activity.  The CME aims to educate providers, including oncologists and primary care providers, on how to implement the current American Cancer Society physical activity guidelines for people in cancer treatment and post-treatment survivorship. Recent studies suggest that 150-300 minutes of moderate physical activity per week helps with symptom management and enhance quality of life in cancer survivors. Attendees will also learn to encourage referring survivors to behavioral support interventions to assist them in adopting and maintaining a physically active lifestyle (i.e. short-term supervised exercise, motivational interviewing, and support groups).  This program is designed for Primary Care Physicians, Oncologists, Physical Therapists, Occupational Therapists, Nurse Practitioners, Physician Assistants, Nurses, Registered Dietitians and Nutritionists.
