Cancer and Inpatient Medical Rehabilitation

In this episode of Medical Rehab Matters, we talk about cancer and inpatient medical rehabilitation. The American Cancer Society estimates that there will be 1.9 million new cancer cases in the U.S. this year. Many of them will benefit from inpatient medical rehab at different points during and after their cancer treatment. Our guests are Vishwa Raj, MD, a cancer rehab specialist at Carolinas Rehab, Sarah Mullan, MS, OT, an occupational therapist and Manager of Cancer Rehabilitation at the Levine Cancer Institute, and Michael Stubblefield, MD, Director of Cancer Rehab at Kessler.  Cohosts: Patricia Sullivan, director of communications for the American Medical Rehabilitation Providers Association and Robert Krug, MD, immediate past chairman of the AMRPA Board and Vice President of Medical Affairs for the Mary Free Bed Rehabilitation Hospital Advisory Group.
