Supporting people with cancer to manage the concerns they identify may involve provision of supportive care interventions within a health professional’s scope of practice or referral to other disciplines and services for specialised intervention.
There are a number of resources available to guide health professionals when providing appropriate levels of intervention and referral. These include frameworks, clinical guidelines, and evidence summaries.
