dc.description.abstract | This cross-sectional mixed methods survey explores healthcare professionals' perspective on their management of cancer patients' psychosocial concerns, and barriers to integrate the psychosocial approach in their work. An invitation for participation was sent to 4,965 inpatient and outpatient working professionals, of which 583 responded (12% response rate), and 368 fully completed the survey. The majority of respondents does not use a systematic approach to discuss patients' psychosocial concerns, 37.5% use the general question How are you?, and 65.0% spontaneously addresses various psychosocial aspects. Most psychosocial topics are sometimes or regularly discussed. Sexuality and return to work are rarely mentioned. About half of the respondents are convinced that they pay enough attention to the psychosocial well-being of cancer patients: by listening, engaging in a deeper conversation, providing advice and through referral. Mostly, patients are referred to a psychologist, a general practitioner, a social worker, a specialised nurse or a centre for well-being and mental health. The barriers experienced, when providing psychosocial support, can be attributed to the patients, to themselves or other healthcare professionals, and to policy restrictions. These barriers should be addressed in order to enable healthcare professionals to improve the integration of the psychosocial approach in cancer care. | - |
