A family's guide to childhood cancer

With the video series "A family's guide to childhood cancer" with Dr. Johannes Wimmer, KiTZ would like to provide affected children, adolescents and their families with a video guide and accompany them.

Together with Johannes Wimmer, KiTZ is producing a total of 100 videos on the subject of cancer in children and adolescents. The videos answer questions about the most important basics of cancer in young patients, as well as established treatment methods and new therapies. Affected families also receive nursing tips, e.g. on nutrition, catheter care and psychosocial issues. The videos are available in German on the KiTZ youtube channel; subtitles can be automatically translated!
