Cathy Burt RN, BScN (Hons), RMT, CDT Topic: Maintenance Matters: Self-Assessment, the Fifth Pillar of Lymphedema Management
This webinar introduces a 5th pillar: self-assessment. I will show you how to check your existing self-care routine to see if it’s still working for you. As an ADP authorizer, I see firsthand how limb size and tissue health can fluctuate between reassessments, which typically happen every two years. Why not catch these changes earlier? By taking a proactive approach, you can maintain control of your lymphedema. Join this webinar to learn how to stay ahead of your condition and maintain, not just manage, your lymphedema. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
