2005 From Cancer Patient to Cancer Survivor: Lost in Transition (free book online)



Blogger's Note:

for the recently diagnosed - 

the JCO publications of late (and others) stem, in part,  from the 2005 From Cancer Patient to Cancer Survivor: Lost in Transition study - a large study detailing the issues and needs which concern patients/healthcare system/s as patients survive cancer. 

Therefore, the advent of 'survivorship care plans',  part of which is the transition of  patients to primary healthcare practitioners from their oncologists for followup   eg. leaving your oncologist to be cared for by family physicians after treatment/s  including the issues (economies) of human resource scarcities (shortages of doctors etc).
