The latest HERU Blog post highlights a study HERU researchers were involved in that examined cancer survivors preferences for the type of follow-up care they received. The post was instigated by recent research from Macmillan Cancer Support on the increasing number of people living with cancer and the resulting pressures on the cancer workforce. In the study we looked at the type of care that cancer survivors preferred and highlight what this could mean for the cancer workforce. The research suggests that people might be prepared to ‘trade off’ consultant care for continuity of care and longer appointments.
