An introduction to Prehabilitation:

The impact of a cancer diagnosis can take a significant toll on those receiving the diagnosis and on those around them.

Often driven by a sense of helplessness, many people with or supporting those with a cancer diagnosis find themselves seeking solutions, to help with the emotional and physical struggles they may be experiencing.

This is why Abbott has created this brochure on prehabilitation.

Prehabilitation is a three-pronged approach, including physical, psychological, and nutritional interventions that can be adopted ahead of starting cancer treatment, with the aim to reduce the potential severity of side effects and improve recovery outcomes.

We’ve worked with a range of experts who have extensive experience of supporting people through cancer diagnoses and treatment to demonstrate the role prehabilitation can play in setting people up for success as they begin their cancer treatment journey.
