Efforts are underway to give patients the best quality of life after a cancer diagnosis.
The HSE is raising awareness of its Cancer Thriving and Surviving Programme today.
The HSE is marking National Cancer Survivors' Day by a new programme which empowers patients as they finish their treatment.
There are over 200,000 cancer survivors in Ireland at the moment.
The Implementing Cancer Thriving and Surviving Report outlines a self-management programme to help them achieve their best possible health outcome.
It supports all cancer survivors with their post-treatment recovery.
Participants can attend weekly workshops over a 6-week period.
It supports them as they finish their treatment and transition to survivorship and it's free to all cancer patients regardless of where they live.
