Um, and then we, we do a couple of exercise tests with them just to see where they are at functionally.
I think we're quite lucky within the BART service that we do get a bit of time to spend with patients that we feel do need the support.
There's obviously different levels of support that some patients need.
You might get a patient that's been a regular gym goer.
They're not scared of the word exercise.
They already were in a good routine.
They just found out about cancer and they were a bit unsure of what to do and likely they probably stopped exercising because they just didn't know what they should be doing.
And so for patients like that, it might just be like a bit of a brief interaction with us and just giving them the okay that yes, you should be exercising and here are a few things you could do.
But definitely we do get a lot of patients that need that extra support.
And as I said before, we're very lucky here that we can
provide that one-on-one support with the patients that need it.
Excellent.
absolutely and this is where we really got to individualize like the the advice that we give the patient you know we have like exercise recommendations that are um i guess quite general um and they are something that we should try to to work towards but again after meeting a patient having a bit of a chat to them and and seeing where they're currently at you're right you know for some patients it might be just mobilizing or
getting up and down from a chair, something as simple as that.
Every patient's very, very different.
So I guess a big part of our job is just meeting the patients where they're currently at and looking at sort of what goals we can help them achieve.
Yeah.
I would say, you know, when the patient's hearing the word exercise from lots of different professions, from the surgeon to the oncologist to the nurses through to us,
it certainly helps with getting the buy-in from patients.
Yeah, absolutely.
