Prostate Cancer - Patient Empowerment Program

Each year over 20,000 men are diagnosed with prostate cancer in Canada with the majority undergoing some form of treatment option. Radical prostatectomy and/or radiation therapy are common procedures that are effective in the treatment of prostate cancer. However, they typically incur both short- and long-term side effects (e.g. urinary incontinence, sexual dysfunction, reduced physical function, etc) that can negatively impact one\'s quality of life. This study aims to educate and teach pre- (as opposed to most common post-) habilitation - preventive life habits aimed to empower men and address many of the issues faced by men undergoing radical prostatectomy or other active forms of prostate cancer treatments. The investigators hypothesize that daily text and email reminders, in addition to connecting men with other men undergoing similar challenges, will improve participant adherence to the pre-habilitation program. Secondary objectives will assess change in mental health, physical fitness, urological symptoms, state of relaxation, and quality of life parameters before and after the program.
