When all is said and done, I hope to have a better understanding of what Cancer patients and survivors went through. I would like to hear from them what worked for them and what did not when it came to addressing non medical issues in their life. I would like to learn if matters to them in the first place. I currently do not know what practices are done in the hospital setting now. I want to learn if there is a benefit to addressing psychosocial issues in the first place in a medical setting.The research will answer several questions: Are assessments done in a medical setting for Cancer patients. If they are done, what was in included in the assessment? what did the follow up or “treatment” plan look like to address these psycosocial issues?
