Word Cancer Day, 4 February


Word Cancer Day, 4 February

World Cancer Day on 4 February is attributed to raising awareness about cancer and how to prevent, detect and treat it .

Tunstall Healthcare offers a 24 hour response centre that provides quick and easy access to assistance for people living with cancer and their carers.

Tunstall recently launched the mytelemedic telehealth system that is used in the home to support people living with chronic conditions like cancer, to manage their condition from home.

mytelemedic allows people to take their vital signs, answer a series of health related questions and have all of the details passed onto their clinicians for review, follow up and if necessary, intervention.

Internationally this type of health management is widely used, allowing people to manage their chronic health conditions from the comfort of their own home.

To find out more about Tunstall Healthcare’s mytelemedic or how you can have the support of Tunstall’s 24 hour response service visit www.tunstallhealthcare.com.au or call 1300 760 333.
