  • Summary

    This chapter is focused on self-care for health care practitioners. It begins by building the case of why self-care is important and needed as the experience if cancer, illness and death can be very difficult and overwhelming for participants. It suggests the need for policy and reforms at organisational level to encourage and support self-care and well-being of healthcare practitioners. It suggests different options for practitioners to find out what works for them including support from colleagues, interdisciplinary teams and developing self-care plans.
