|
| ~ Supported newly diagnosed individuals to understand their diagnosis, what this means for them and what support they may need in light of this. This has been done in a variety ofways —both face tohce, over the phone, via video calls, in groups and on an individual basis, depending on the needs ofthe individual. |
