Shelley Rushton: The Words You Use Matter – Anne Caboche on Language in Cancer Care

Shelley Rushton, Director Cancer Services and Information at Cancer Institute NSW, shared a post on LinkedIn:

Anne Caboche reminding us of the challenges faced by our diverse communities accessing our services, and the importance of appropriate timely information in their own language. The success of this work supported by a small Cancer Institute NSW grant was having the right people at the table with the right attitudes – key takeaway “the words you use matter” and in the preferred language for the patient and family.”
