This review draws on the experience of adolescent and young adult (AYA) cancer clinicians from Australia, the United States, and the United Kingdom to summarize common aspects of models of care implemented in their countries. The principles underpinning these models include patient‐ and family‐focused care informed by an understanding of normal AYA development, enhancing existing adult or pediatric cancer services to meet the needs of AYA, and promoting collaboration between pediatric and adult oncologists. Common elements of AYA cancer care include establishing an AYA multidisciplinary team that integrates medical and psychosocial care, efforts to centralize complex care, providing access and equity for all AYA, promoting clinical trials, and helping facilitate transition to healthy survivorship. Several organizational approaches are described, noting that local program development depends on resources, infrastructure, and assessment of unmet needs within the region. The development of national networks provides opportunities for shared learning and approaches to evaluation.

BackgroundGiven that social media is quickly penetrating clinical practice, it is essential to explore how these technologies can be used to improve patient-centered care. This is particularly important for healthcare professionals caring for adolescents and young adults (AYA), amid whom the use of social media is nearly universal and whose medical and psychosocial needs are often underestimated by the pediatric or adult oncology settings in which they are treated.ObjectivesTo examine the perspectives of various medical professionals on the emerging role of social media in AYA oncology.MethodsThree focus groups were performed with Swiss healthcare professionals involved in the care of AYA patients with cancer. The focus groups were analyzed using thematic coding.ResultsHealthcare professionals caring for AYA cancer patients in Switzerland are reluctant to step into the social media sphere because they find it difficult to navigate professional boundaries in an unfamiliar space where different contexts collapse. Nurses and younger healthcare professionals who tend to have a more intimate relationship with AYA, often lack virtual mentorship to know how to maintain online professionalism. Adolescents and young adults cancer-related social media presence was unknown to our participants which resulted in missed occasions to inform, educate and care for this often underserved population of cancer patients.ConclusionsMore practical guidance is needed to help healthcare professionals with how to integrate social media into clinical practice. Setting up fruitful collaborations between medical institutions and existing AYA support groups online might be the best way forward.
