The role of occupational therapy in gynecological cancer care

Gynecological cancers affect millions of women worldwide and present unique challenges that go beyond the physical aspects of the disease (Shirali et al., 2020). Occupational therapy practitioners (OTPs) have a vital role to play in the comprehensive care of women with gynecological cancer. By adopting a holistic approach that addresses the physical, psychological, and social dimensions of clients’ well-being, occupational therapy can significantly enhance their quality of life and promote optimal recovery (Pergolotti et al., 2020).
