Dear colleagues,

I am happy to announce 3 days workshop on

“EFFECTIVE REHABILITATION AFTER HEAD AND NECK CANCER” to be held on:

Date: 19th September to 21st September, 2008.

Venue : Rustom Choksi Auditorium, 2nd Floor, Golden Jubilee Block, Tata Memorial Hospital, Parel, Mumbai.
.

Program:

With the increasing number of head and neck cancer patients, the need to know more about the rehabilitation procedure was felt by professionals in the field of rehabilitation. For Speech Pathologists, rehabilitation following head neck cancers poses new challenges. It can be said that it is a specialized area of study by itself. This workshop at Tata Memorial hospital is the first of its kind for Speech pathologists only. Our aim through these series of lectures/demonstrations is to provide students and professionals alike with a glimpse of what to expect and more importantly how to manage patients with head and neck cancers. Managing head and neck cancers requires a well coordinated team effort between Rehabilitation professionals and others such as Surgeons, Radiation Oncologists, Dental surgeons, Dieticians and Nurses. Throughout this lecture series we will learn exactly what is the part played by each of these professionals and how is it that a Speech pathologist contributes to this process. All the speakers are excellent in their theoretical and clinical knowledge of Oncology. Demonstration of different speech rehabilitation procedures on patients will be the key feature of this workshop.


REGISTRATION FEES: Rs. 1000 /- for speech pathologists.
Rs. 700 /- for students
