TAILIEUCHUNG - Cancer Care for the Whole Patient: Meeting Psychosocial Health Needs (Free Executive Summary)

Cancer care today often provides state-of-the-science biomedical treatment, but fails to address the psychological and social (psychosocial) problems associated with the illness. This failure can compromise the effectiveness of health care and thereby adversely affect the health of cancer patients. Psychological and social problems created or exacerbated by cancer—including depression and other emotional problems; lack of information or skills needed to manage the illness; lack of transportation or other resources; and disruptions in work, school, and family life— cause additional suffering, weaken adherence to prescribed treatments, and threaten patients’ return to health | Cancer Care for the Whole Patient Meeting Psychosocial Health Needs Free Executive Summary http catalog Free Executive Summary Cancer Care for the Whole Patient Meeting Psychosocial Health Needs Committee on Psychosocial Services to Cancer Patients Families in a Community Setting Nancy E.
