The mission
The main objective of LILT is to defeat cancer through primary prevention, secondary and tertiary education. Prevention, in fact, is considered by always the priority mission in the LILT - as evidenced by the very same pay-off "Prevention is living" - and still represents the most effective weapon in the fight against cancer. A fact confirmed by the reduced mortality and by lengthening and improving the quality of life of cancer patients.
activities
The LILT has always been a point of reference in the field of cancer prevention, both in Italy and abroad, offering many services and by, through agreements and memoranda of understanding, exchange information and experiences in order to establish and implement profitable synergies. Undoubtedly, the promotion and implementation of a culture of prevention (primary, secondary and tertiary) as a way of life is the main activity of LILT. For this is the largest association dedicated to the fight against cancer, understood in all its aspects.
Primary prevention: proper nutrition, physical activity and health education attraverso la diffusione di materiale didattico-informativo (campagne di sensibilizzazione, incontri nelle scuole, ecc.), realizzazione di eventi a carattere provinciale e regionale; manifestazioni a carattere nazionale; lotta al tabagismo (percorsi per smettere di fumare, campagne informative, linea verde SOS LILT 800 998877).
Prevenzione secondaria : visite specialistiche ed esami per la diagnosi precoce, con l’obiettivo di identificare lesioni tumorali allo stadio iniziale, aumentando così notevolmente la possibilità di completa guarigione, ricorrendo a cure sempre meno aggressive.
Prevenzione terziaria : riabilitazione fisica, psichica, social and employment of cancer patients. And 'this is a valuable task that LILT is able to offer thanks to the Departments of Provincial Prevention of points (clinics) and in collaboration with the National Health Service.
Home care: a precious complement to hospital care, through the Provincial Departments LILT, which provide assistance to medical, psychological, nursing, and in many cases also psycho-social and economic development. Particular attention to the cancer patient, to build around him a network of solidarity and sharing, security and information services, to offer the certainty of not being alone. In this regard, the LILT ha contribuito in maniera sostanziale alla redazione e promozione del Manifesto dei Diritti del Malato Oncologico, che tutela il malato e la sua famiglia sia in ambito lavorativo che sociale, prendendosi cura della sua esistenza.
