Research summary
Throughout a patient’s cancer treatment, they are likely to receive a large volume of information from various sources, such as the internet, leaflets, and verbal communication from healthcare professionals. This information can be overwhelming and may still leave patients with unresolved questions.
The purpose of this study is to enhance the content, format, and timing of information and support provided to patients regarding radiotherapy. To achieve this goal, it is essential to gather personal experiences and perspectives on the information and support patients have received. These insights will be instrumental in developing improved resources for future patients.
