GPs and advanced/ metastatic cancer – how can they help?

Dr Jane Crowe

This Counterpart Making Connections webinar was recorded in Melbourne on 16 August 2022. General practitioner, Dr Jane Crowe, explains the benefits of having a GP involved in your care if you are living with advanced/metastatic cancer. These include Health Management Plans, coordination of care and management of symptoms. Hosted by Wendy Pullan. Links to care plan templates and guides:

• MyCarePlan for templates for early stage breast, early stage bowel, uterine (endometrial), early stage melanoma, non-Hodgkin lymphoma
• Survivorship Care Plan templates for cancers other than those listed above (you will need to scroll down for the short and long versions)
• ASCO Cancer treatment and survivorship care plans (US)

Remember that your doctor will be able to help you to create your own care plan, even if you can't find a template that exactly matches your particular situation.
