Complementary Medicine Education and Outcomes (CAMEO) Program

   

Please Note:  CAMEO is no longer providing individual information and decision support to patients and health care providers.

Our resources and health care provider education program continue to be available (
see what does CAMEO offer, below), while we wrap up our current research projects and prepare for new ones.


What is CAMEO? CAMEO is a research program that transforms complementary medicine (CAM) research into user-friendly information that can be shared with patients and health professionals. To learn more, visit our About CAMEO page.
What does

CAMEO currently offers a range of CAM support programs and resources, all within the context of research to allow these services to be evaluated. These include: 

  • On-line Health Care Provider education course (see Participate in Research page for more info & registration)
  • The CAM and Cancer in British Columbia information booklet (see Documents page)
  • A CAM Diary for monitoring the effectiveness of your CAM use (see Documents page)
