Methods of meeting patients' cancer information needs.
It is difficult to imagine the impact of a diagnosis of cancer. However, even where a patient has a poor prognosis, it is important to allow patients and their carers to set the information agenda. Cancer information specialists will be irreplaceable in helping to determine what information a patient needs, in what format and at what time, and how those needs change during the cancer journey.
