The conference will look at preoperative/pre treatment optimisation of patients fitness and wellbeing through exercise, nutrition and psychological support.

This topic is even more important in recent times in light of the negative impact that the COVID-19 pandemic and lockdowns have had on many individuals' health and fitness levels. Therefore, current high waiting lists could be used as preparation time to ensure the best outcomes. 

This conference will enable delegates to:

  • network with colleagues who are working to deliver effective prehabilitation for surgery or treatment
  • reflect on patient's lived experience to understand how to engage patients in prehab programmes
  • learn from outstanding practice in implementing a prehabilitation programme
  • improve the way they support patients to prepare themselves, physically and emotionally for surgery or treatment
  • identify key strategies for improving physical activity, exercise and behaviour change.
