The Australian Cancer Plan – Strategic Objective 2: Enhanced Consumer Experience
Continuing in our series exploring the Australian Cancer Plan, today we are looking at Strategic Objective 2; Enhanced Consumer Experience.
Input for the Plan from those with lived experience highlighted the unique impacts and distinct challenges faced by children, adolescents and young adults as a result of a cancer diagnosis, including missing out on school and other social activities. When a child, adolescent or young person is diagnosed with cancer, families experience significant emotional distress and on top of this are required to navigate complex health and cancer care. The plan acknowledges that co-designed tailored resources are an important tool to help families navigate this and empower them with their healthcare choices.
ANZCHOG’s National Patient and Carer Advisory Group (NPCAG) helps improve family experiences with the review of all clinical trial family information sheets and consent forms. A foundation of lived experiences helps ensure these documents are easy to understand and that families are able to use them to form empowered decisions, at a time that is already incredibly overwhelming. Over the next few years ANZCHOG plans to enhance the way in which we gather input from families. Watch this space!
