“…The first pile consisted of articles ( n = 25) whose findings did not have the potential to be relevant for communication training. The four main reasons for not considering these articles were as follows: they reported an element of communication, which is specific to a local context and thus not suitable for training outside this very context, for instance Egan et al (), Heidari and Mardani‐Hamooleh () and Anarado, Ezeome, Ofi, Nwaneri, and Ogbolu (); they assessed the effect of a communication tool, for instance Miller et al (), Lipson‐Smith et al () and Cooley et al (); they focused on a singular clinical situation (e.g., fertility preservation) or treatment (e.g., for early stage non‐small cell lung cancer, recurrent ovarian cancer), for instance Elit et al (), Dyer and Quinn (), and Golden, Thomas, Moghanaki, and Slatore (); or they addressed interventions to empower patients, for instance Jones et al (), and Halkett et al ().…”

Objective The critics and recommendations for communication training in oncology call for new ideas, which may contribute to designing the next generation of training. The aim of this work was to search the literature on communication in oncology for empirically grounded observations that might be useful for the development of training approaches. Methods The approach consists of identifying findings that might serve as cues for the design of the next generation of training. The literature search strategy allowed the inclusion of 68 articles. Results Findings of the articles showed that multiple factors shape clinical communication: the functions and effects of information provision, the relational and interactional aspects of communication, its patient‐ and context‐related dimensions, and the intrapsychic and context‐related barriers hampering the patient encounter that clinicians are facing. Conclusion A way to reach all oncologists and to provide training centred on the singular needs of participants is a shift in the focus of training from communication tasks or communication‐related situations to the clinician. Practice implications Training should focus on the competencies and qualities to be developed by clinicians, such as being flexible, able to adapt to the singular patient, sensitive to interactional aspects of communication, which influence the clinical encounter.

“…An appropriate literature search was conducted to find a validated questionnaire in the PE field to be administered to the Scientific Board Directors. As no tools matched the purpose of the survey, the Centro di Riferimento Oncologico (CRO) of Aviano, as leader of the project and in collaboration with project partners, developed, an hoc questionnaire on the basis of: a previous OECI-Organization of European Cancer Institutes [ 25 ] questionnaire addressed to survey the ongoing activities of PE in the European cancer organizations; the results of a survey customer satisfaction/information needs assessment regarding the educational activities organized at CRO [ 26 ] the collaboration with the Princess Margaret Cancer Centre and its PE Programme [ 27 , 28 ] and a professional relationship with the Cancer Patient Education Network [ 29 ]. …”

BackgroundEducational intervention represents an essential element of care for cancer patients; while several single institutions develop their own patient education (PE) programs on cancer, little information is available on the effective existence of PE programs at the level of research and care institutes. In Italy such institutes - Istituti di Ricovero e Cura a Carattere Scientifico - are appointed by the Ministry of Health, and 11 (Cancer Research & Care Istitute-CRCI) of the 48 are specific for cancer on the basis of specific requirements regarding cancer care, research and education. Therefore, they represent an ideal and homogeneous model through which to investigate PE policies and activities throughout the country. The objective of this study was to assess PE activities in Italian CRCI.MethodsWe carried out a survey on PE strategies and services through a questionnaire. Four key points were investigated: a) PE as a cancer care priority, b) activities that are routinely part of PE, c) real involvement of the patients, and d) involvement of healthcare workers in PE activities.ResultsMost CRCI (85 %) completed the survey. All reported having ongoing PE activities, and 4 of the 11 considered PE an institutional activity. More than 90 % of CRCI organize classes and prepare PE handouts, while other PE activities (e.g., Cancer Information Services, mutual support groups) are less frequently part of institutional PE programs. Patients are frequently involved in the organization and preparation of educational activities on the basis of their own needs. Various PE activities are carried out for caregivers in 8 (73 %) out of 11 institutes. Finally, health care workers have an active role in the organization of PE programs, although nurses take part in these activities in only half of CRCI and pharmacists are seldom included.ConclusionsThe information arising from our research constitutes a necessary framework to identify areas of development and to design new strategies and standards to disseminate the culture of PE. This may ultimately help and stimulate the establishment of institutional integrated PE programs, including policies and interventions that can benefit a significant proportion of cancer patients.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (doi:10.1186/s12913-015-0962-5) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

“…Én studie er en systematisk oversikt over kvalitative studier (29) og tre har en mixed method-design (15,30,36). To studier undersøker ved hjelp av kvantitative data hvilken innvirkning helsepedagogiske opplaeringstiltak har på tilegnelsen av kunnskaper, ferdigheter og holdninger til personer som planlegger å gi opplaering og laerings-og mestringstilbud (35,36). De 16 inkluderte studiene belyser altså kompetanse fra ulike synsvinkler.…”

“…De 16 inkluderte studiene belyser altså kompetanse fra ulike synsvinkler. Ikke alle problemstillingene i studiene hadde kompetanse som tema, men tok opp spørsmålet i presentasjonen av studienes resultater Hele tolv av de 16 studiene understreker at det er viktig å kunne lede grupper av pasienter og brukere for å tilrettelegge for laering og mestring på en adekvat måte (15,22,24,25,(27)(28)(29)(30)(31)(32)(33)(34)36). Studiene beskriver i hovedsak to dimensjoner ved gruppeledelse.…”
