The document provides guidance on creating a physical activity policy for the workplace. It recommends identifying places for physical activity, establishing supportive policies, promoting programs, and communicating opportunities regularly. Sample policies outline requiring 15 extra minutes per day for physical activity, making facilities available before and after work, and partnering to promote options to employees and the community. Walking programs can complement the culture but places and support are needed first. Liability for voluntary wellness activities is limited, but maintaining equipment and user education can further reduce risks. Promoting physical activity off-site involves tools like maps and community resources.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

2. The best practice for employers who want to increase
physical activity among employees includes the
following components:
Availability and identification of places for
physical activity
Policies that support physical activity
Programs that promote more physical activity
Promotion of opportunities for physical activity
3. Availability and identification of places for physical
activity
• Identify potential places for indoor and outdoor
walking routes
• Map out a 10- to 20-minute route
• Dedicate a room for physical activity
• Build movement into the workday
4.
5. Write a policy for physical activity
• Places
• Time for physical activity
• Dress code
• Active meetings
6. Sample policy #1
“Beginning September 1, 2013 all employees are required to receive an additional 15
minutes of paid break time each day to participate in physical activity. This time may be
combined with the current lunch time (of 40 minutes) to accumulate 55 minutes of total
break time. The additional 15 minutes of break time is designated for the purpose of
participating in physical activity only. Employees who do not wish to use the extra time for
physical activity are not eligible to take the extra break time.
Our organization supports the effective use of walking meetings. Walking meetings are most
effective when there are three or fewer individuals involved and the topic doesn’t require
handouts or extensive note taking.
Staff must follow the current human resources dress code policy. However, employees are
encouraged to keep a pair of walking shoes at their desks to allow for a walk break or
walking meeting.
Senior leadership at our organization will provide information regarding physical activity
opportunities at least quarterly to all employees.”
7. Sample policy #2
“Beginning September 1, 2011, facilities at School District <#> are available for employees to
use before and after work. This includes the fitness center, weight room, running track, gyms,
locker and shower facilities, and pool when not in use by a sports team. In addition, the school
hallways are available for walking for employees and members of the community before school
beginning at 7 a.m. and after school until 5:30 p.m. Members of the community will complete a
waiver in the main office and receive a visitor card prior to first use of the hallways.
Sports teams that use facilities for practices will be given first priority, however, where it is
feasible to share facilities, we will make every attempt to open facilities to employees during
those instances. Signs will be clearly posted notifying staff of first priority usage.
In each school office, the school district has also made available maps that identify outdoor
walking routes, including identification of paved community walking trails. These maps are
available for staff and members of the community.
Senior leadership within our organization will provide information regarding physical activity
opportunities at least quarterly to all employees. In addition, we will partner with Community
Education to promote these options to the community.”
8. Walking programs
Walking programs can be a nice complement to your healthy workplace culture. It is
important to spend time ensuring that you have first improved the environment
(places for activity) versus beginning your approach by holding a walking program.
Without programs, places are less likely to be used.
Without a supportive culture, programs are less likely to increase physical
activity
Walking programs can be an inexpensive and effective way to promote physical
activity; employees connect with each other to walk before, during or after the
workday. Programs can be formal or informal. Think about asking physically active
employees to be mentors and lead daily walks.
9. Policy Promotion
At least once each quarter,
communicate with your employees
about workplace opportunities for
physical activity – places to be active,
policies that support activity and
programs that encourage physical
activity.

13. Liability for Workplace Wellness Activities?
• There are two types of liability:
– Workers’ Compensation
– Personal Injury
14. Workers’ Compensation:
Not a concern if activity is “voluntary”
Injuries incurred while participating in voluntary
recreational programs sponsored by the employer,
including health promotion programs, athletic events,
parties, and picnics, do not arise out of and in the
course of the employment even though the employer
pays some or all of the cost of the program. This
exclusion does not apply in the event that the injured
employee was ordered or assigned by the employer to
participate in the program.
Minnesota Statute 176.021, subdivision 9.
15. If an employee is injured while riding an
employer-owned bicycle to an off-site meeting
instead of driving, the employer may have
workers compensation liability because the
employee is riding the bike in the course of his
or her employment. The employee is traveling to
the off-site meeting for the employer’s benefit,
not the employee’s benefit. The fact that the
employee had the choice to drive his or her own
car and chose to use the employer’s bicycle
should not make a difference.
16. If the employer makes the bicycles available for
employees to ride as part of the wellness
program unrelated to any employment duties,
any injuries that occur would be exempt from
workers comp coverage. However, the employer
could be liable for personal injury if it made
bicycles available to its employees that it knew
to be defective and an employee were injured in
an accident because of the defect.
17. Personal Injury:
A potential concern regardless of whether
or not the activity was “voluntary”.
Q: How can the owner or operator of a bike share
program limit its liability?
A: There are numerous ways that the owner or operator
of a bike share program can limit its liability, including:
• Purchasing insurance
• Requiring users of the program to sign waivers
releasing the program from liability for injuries,
• Keeping the bikes well maintained
• Educating users about use of the bike
• Providing safety training.
