Fear of cancer recurrence clinical pathway
Researchers have developed an evidence-based clinical pathway to help healthcare professionals manage patients' fear of cancer recurrence. The initiative provides training modules, practical guidance, and case studies to improve survivorship care.
Why it matters
As cancer survival rates increase, addressing the psychological burden of potential recurrence is becoming a critical component of long-term patient care.
An evidence-based clinical pathway for identifying and managing fear of recurrence has been developed by researchers from the Daffodil Centre, a partnership between Cancer Council NSW and the University of Sydney, in collaboration with the McGrath Foundation and Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre. Designed as an online training module for healthcare professionals to help cancer survivors manage anxieties around fear of recurrence, it includes practical guidance, videos and culturally diverse case studies.
