Improving Mental Health in Cancer Survivorship: A Case Study
Authors: Chad Walkaden BSW.
Abstract
A growing population of cancer survivors poses risks to health systems due to the complexities associated with these patients’ long-term health care needs. This case study outlines an intervention that involved a patient completing a cancer support program called “The Cancer Blueprint”. This case demonstrates numerous examples of how the patient was able to benefit from a cancer support program that incorporated technology to deliver a range of psychological interventions combined with evidence-based integrative techniques to promote his lifestyle habits.
