Support for healthcare professionals
Find out where to start, how to use and share the resources, and how to join training on sexual health in prostate cancer care.
Getting started
Find the right starting point for your role.
Who are these resources for?
These resources support healthcare professionals involved in prostate cancer care, including nurses, urologists, oncology professionals, psychologists, sex therapists, physiotherapists and primary care clinicians. Choose materials that fit your role, whether you provide patient care, support follow-up or educate colleagues.
Where should I start?
For a quick introduction, start with the one-page Guidelines summary. For help structuring a conversation, explore the 5A’s Clinical Checklist. You can then watch consultation examples or explore training relevant to your work.
What are the resources based on?
The clinical resources draw on the Guidelines for Sexual Health Care for Prostate Cancer Patients. The Guidelines bring together research evidence and expert opinion to support sexual health care. The toolkit helps translate this guidance into everyday practice.
Using and sharing resources
Support consultations, learning and patient education.
How can I use the resources in my work?
Choose a resource for the task you have in mind: a checklist for consultations, a video to explore communication approaches, information to share with a patient, or slides for teaching colleagues.
Which videos should I watch?
Choose consultation examples to see conversations in practice. Choose Expert Q&A videos to explore a particular topic. The toolkit separates these collections so you can find the format that suits your learning needs.
Can I share resources with patients and partners?
Yes. The patient resource collection links to True North information intended for people affected by prostate cancer and their partners. You can discuss a relevant resource during a consultation or share its link for them to review afterward.
Why am I asked for my details before downloading a resource?
The download form helps ISSM and Movember understand how the toolkit is used. It asks for your name, email address, profession and country. Follow-up surveys and newsletter updates have separate opt-in choices.
See the Privacy Notice linked beside the download form for information about how your details are used.
Learning and participation
Join training or find further support.
How do I register for a webinar or watch a previous session?
Visit the webinar page and select the session you’re interested in. It provides links to registration and information about access to previous sessions.
Can I earn continuing education credits?
The webinar programme offers continuing education credit, subject to completion requirements. Check the information for the relevant year and the linked certificate instructions before participating.
Who are the in-person workshops for, and how do I apply?
The workshops focus on practising communication skills and applying guidance in clinical care. They are designed for multidisciplinary healthcare professionals, including non-physician providers and oncology professionals involved in patient follow-up. Check the individual event for eligibility and application details.
I’m a patient or partner. Where should I start?
Start with the True North patient and partner resources. They cover sexual changes, recovery, intimacy and relationships after prostate cancer. This website primarily supports healthcare professionals, although the webinar programme is also accessible to patients and the public.
