**Trigger Warning**

Unfortunately due to technical difficulties we could not share the video to our youtube page.
Discussion around Head and Neck Cancer Radiotherapy.
Jo McNamara and Naman Julka-Anderson catch up with Julie McCrossin as part of the Living with and Beyond Cancer Series (Part 7).

To use this podcast as CPD, look at these reflection points: 

1) what information does your department give to patients who have been referred for head and neck radiotherapy? 

2) when you speak to a patient before their pre-treatment or treatment appointment, what suggestions do you give on how best to cope with a thermoplastic mask?

3) how can you improve patient experience for anyone undergoing treatment with a thermoplastic mask?
