Living with and beyond cancer Training Needs Assessment for Trainee GPs |
Welcome to the living with and beyond cancer training needs assessment
This survey for trainee GP survey is to investigate follow-up care for people living with and beyond cancer, including cardiovascular health after cancer
As cancer treatments improve, the number of people living with and beyond cancer is increasing. Late onset and long-term side effects of cancer and its treatment have been defined as ‘consequences of treatment’. They can be functional, physical or psychological problems and can occur months or years after completion of treatment. As many as 500,000 cancer survivors in the UK are considered to be experiencing consequences attributable to cancer treatment (Macmillan Cancer Support, 2013).
You are invited to take part in a survey that aims to examine the attitudes and experiences of trainee GPs about follow-up care for people living with and beyond cancer- people who have completed active treatment for any cancer (excluding non-melanoma skin cancer)-with a particular focus on cardiovascular health after cancer.
The survey will take approximately 10 minutes to complete. Your participation will help to identify GP’s needs for support and education relating to the provision of care for cancer people living with and beyond cancers in general, and management strategies for cardiovascular health after cancer in particular.
The information you provide will be handled in a manner that ensures confidentiality. No identifying information will be released in any publications resulting from the study. Participation in this survey is voluntary. This project is supported by Macmillan Cancer Support.
Thank you very much for your involvement.
We greatly appreciate your time and participation.
