Survivorship Care (SC) Plan
The SC plan is tailored to the patient's needs and accounts for the appropriate treatment summary, follow-up recommendations and advice addressed to health promotion and to the management of symptoms and treatments' side-effects. Upon discharge, patients will be followed up by a care coordinator (oncology/basic nurse, physical therapist, or occupational therapist) who will assess their QoL and perceived needs. Based on these results, the SC plan will be integrated with appropriate referral to educational resources, services, and/or sing-post to facilities available in the hospital and/or community.
