FATIGUE MANAGEMENT GROUP

This is a support group for patients who suffer from fatigue.

Fatigue is an overwhelming level of tiredness that is not improved by sleep that can have a major impact on daily life. We recognise that patients undergoing chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or living with a long term condition can suffer from fatigue.

This 6 week programme runs regularly throughout the year on Friday 2.30 - 4.00pm. Dates can be found in the service user events calendar on the website.

Session 1: Introductions - what is fatigue, goal setting

Session 2: the value of exercise

Session 3: energy conservation, how to manage fatigue

Session 4: sleep hygiene

Session 5: thoughts for the future

Session 6: complementary therapy
