Describe what this course offers and how to use it at your own pace.
Welcome, you are in the right place. This course shares general information about your workday and how to plan around it. Your job can shape when you eat, how you move and when you check. Long shifts, desk days and meetings all play a part.
Each lesson takes a few minutes. Finish one, then come back to the next when it suits you. There is no set schedule, and a break between lessons is fine.
You set the pace. Your care team, the doctor and nurses who help you, sets your targets and plans.
