Quality of Life Among Cancer Survivors: Challenges and Strategies for Oncology Professionals and Researchers by Tanya R. FitzpatrickEnglish | PDF,EPUB | 2018 | 219 Pages | ISBN : 3319752227 | 3.65 MB
This multidisciplinary reference explores the concepts and realities of quality of life among cancer survivors in its physical, psychological, cognitive, social, and familial dimensions. Informed by a broad range of fields including genetics, psychiatry, nursing, dentistry, rehabilitation, and ethics, it addresses daily challenges of living for this population, from self-care to cultural concerns and from social interactions to experiences with providers. Family issues of pediatric, young adult, and elder survivors, caregiving parents, and siblings are a major area of concern. And contributors describe interventions for survivors as individuals, in family content, and as part of integrated care across primary and specialty settings.
