On Friday 25th September, the Severn Healthcare team facilitated a Regional Laryngectomy Patient Event in Newbury.

The event was a real celebration of life after laryngectomy bringing together clinicians, patients and supporters from across the region.

We heard from Ms Lisa Fraser ENT consultant at the Churchill Hospital Oxford, and a presentation from one of Severn Healthcare’s Clinical Specialist SLT’s around pulmonary rehabilitation. We then heard about the importance of peer support from the wonderful Cancer Laryngectomee Trust and Life After Lary.

The feedback from the day was wonderful. One patient had met laryngectomees for the first time. One comment really struck home when asked "what was the biggest take home point" and the response was “that I am not alone”.

It was great to see the InHealthand Fahl product range displayed along with the Romet devices and also to see representation from Rapidcare talking about their DAC service specific to laryngectomees called SevernDirect.

Menna (Clinical Specialist) and Chris (ENT Area Manager) spent a lovely day with Jon Organ from Life after Lary (LAL) on Thursday 10th September, visiting Morriston Hospital and UHW. The visit provided an opportunity to discuss how clinicians and LAL can work together with our support to improve the patient journey, communication and peer support.

The day was followed with an enjoyable evening at the Clayton Hotel with SLT’s, ENT staff and CNS teams, where Jono shared his personal journey and the history and vision of LAL. Plus a Laryngectomy Club meeting. A firm commitment from everyone who met Jono that they will promote the work of LAL.

A really lovely example of how Severn Clinical Specialists and Area Managers, alongside their established relationships with clinicians, can help bring people together to promote collaboration.

Exciting things ahead!
