The mission of the annual Great Strides Together conference is to highlight the collaborative efforts of the oncology provider team by presenting patient-focused standard of care education to ultimately improve cancer treatment outcomes. Great Strides Together is a multi-facility represented and planned meeting that includes continuing medical education credits designed for oncology physicians, nurses, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, pharmacists, social workers, dietitians, and other healthcare professionals managing cancer patients. The theme of this conference is about the “team” and how the physician and the support staff work together to provide the best care for the patient.
