Penn study: Breast cancer survivors call for more 'survivorship care' from primary care physicians
Date:1/21/2009

survivors worldwide. The Penn researchers say that expanding programs like these to more cancer patients may help boost their satisfaction with survivorship care delivered via primary care physicians.

"Our goal is to provide optimal care and guidance to patients from diagnosis through the post-treatment survivorship period. Providers at Penn recognize that cancer patients require specialized care even as they begin new lives as survivors," says study co-author Linda A. Jacobs, PhD, RN, Director of the Abramson Cancer Center's LIVESTRONG Survivorship Center of Excellence. "Developing treatment summaries and care plans for all patients at the end of cancer treatment will guide patients and providers in appropriate surveillance and follow-up care throughout their lives."
