Supporting women affected by cancer through telehealth
Women supporting other women affected by cancer at the heart of Counterpart’s service. Thanks to the support of LUCRF Super, we are using technology to connect, support and inform more women affected by breast or a gynaecological cancer across Victoria.
In August 2018, Counterpart began our Telehealth Project with funding from LUCRF Super Community Program. This enabled us to install new, modern telehealth facilities at Women’s Health Victoria which are being used to host high-quality webinars for women across the state. Six regional health services have hosted live webinar events to give their patients access to information provided by expert presenters as well as a chance to connect with each other. Women who could not otherwise participate can also join in from home.
This video was created by LUCRF Super and features women who have experienced cancer and volunteered to help spread the word about Counterpart.
