PLANET Study: Planning for End of TreatmentThis project is looking at information sharing with children, young people and families at the end of active cancer treatment, as they move into survivorship care. The end of treatment can be a time of celebration for families, but it can also be a time of worry and uncertainty. Families must be given the right care, information and support which meets their needs. International research has shown that there are gaps in the information children and families get at the end of treatment. We don鈥檛 currently know whether children and families in the UK are receiving the information they need at this time. This topic was identified as important in the Children鈥檚 Cancer Priority Setting Partnership, which asked children, survivors, families and professionals which topics they would like future research to focus on.
We hope to find out:
- what types of information are shared and in what format?
- when are families given this information?
- who鈥檚 giving the information?
- who鈥檚 involved in the conversations?
