Our practice is undergoing some changes...

Hospice Bloemfontein offers care and support to patients with life-threatening illness, but also provides services to family members.
In 2025 their range of services will include a quarterly, 6-week grief support group programme, to help those who have lost someone dear to them to feel & process their emotions, understand their grief as a healthy, adaptive response to loss and find ways to create a sense of meaning and continued connection with their loved one, with others who are experiencing something similar.
Contact us for more information, or to chat to us about being part of our first intake.

Kom wees deel van hierdie gevoelvolle lente-tee ten bate van Hospice Bloemfontein in samewerking met Hekelwoorde.

11/07/2024

This week was corporate wellness week and our practice was invited to Trans-50 Association Fichardtpark to represent the services that Occupational Therapists can render in assisting caregivers to care for themselves.
We enjoyed teaching breathing techniques, providing sensory nourishment through hand massage and essential oils, playing Jenga and having a laugh as well as giving an opportunity for people to spend time colouring an inspiring picture.

If you are caring for someone - remember the importance of also caring for yourself!

Sarcoma awareness month.

July is Sarcoma Awareness Month!

Most cases of cancer involve either a carcinoma or a sarcoma. Sarcomas start in connective tissues, which include bones, cartilage, tendons, and the fibrous tissue that supports organs. While sarcomas are much less common than carcinomas, they are important to understand.

Sarcomas are typically grouped into two main types: bone sarcomas (osteosarcoma) and soft tissue sarcomas. Altogether, they make up less than 1% of all cancer diagnoses each year.

- Most common bone sarcomas include Osteosarcoma, Chondrosarcoma, Ewing Sarcoma and Chordoma.
- Most common soft tissue sarcomas include Rhabdomyosarcoma, Leiomyosarcoma, Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumours (GISTs) and Kaposi's Sarcoma.

Learn more about sarcomas and their impact in the CANSA Fact Sheet on Sarcoma Cancer:https://cansa.org.za/files/2021/05/Fact-Sheet-on-Sarcoma-Cancer-NCR-2017-web-May-2021.pdf
