title: Quality of care. Understanding the theoretical framework and learning the practical setting.
abstract: Different professional reports set out recommendations for the delivery of high-quality services in cancer centers, units and primary health care. The explicit recommendations of the reports emphasized the need for cancer service to take account of the views and preferences of patients as well as of their families and careers. The assessment of the compliance with those recommendations is a base for the professional audit, measurement of the actual quality of care given, as well as the accreditation of cancer centers and units. Therefore, ensuring high quality in all areas of health care system is of great importance.
