[Sociomedical service in the care system for children with oncological diseases].
Children with oncological diseases and their families receive no adequate social and psychological support, which adversely affects the outcomes of treatment and prognosis in patients and in those who have been cured from malignant tumors and deteriorates their and their families' life quality. A concept of sociomedical measures, which has been worked out at the Research Institute of Pediatric Oncology and Hematology, N. Blokhin Russian Cancer Research Center, is built on the principle of interdisciplinary approach to providing care to children with malignant tumors and it implies the rendering the patient and his or her family various social and psychological supports at all stages of specialized care.
