“…ability and willingness to attend tertiary care centers during COVID-19 have created an opportunity for cancer care practitioners to de-centralize or delegate care from the specialist setting. Alternative models of posttreatment follow-up care have been proposed but with varying levels of uptake internationally [12,13]. There is an ongoing debate about "who" should deliver survivorship care, and "which" models of care are most effective in delivering quality of care.…”

“…Patients do not generally request information about late effects, highlighting the need for health professionals to raise the topic [6]. Survivorship care plans could provide a viable solution as they note potential late effects based on treatment and personal risk factors and address steps patients should take in the event of developing late effects [39,40]. Survivorship care plans, if implemented adequately, could satisfy participants' information needs, reduce uncertainty and enhance coping with late effects [41].…”

Purpose Breast cancer survivors are at increased risk of adverse outcomes, called late effects, years after the completion of active treatment. Late effects can signi cantly impair physical functioning. The current study aimed to explore breast cancer survivors' experiences, perceptions and concerns about late effects.Methods women treated for breast cancer in the last 10 years participated in semi-structured telephone interviews. Participant views were sought with respect to knowledge, experience and perceived longer-term risk. A thematic analysis was conducted.Results Four themes emerged from the data: (1) late effects awareness, (2) framing and coping, (3) uncertainty and (4) management. There was a range of emotional responses to late effects however many participants reported being unaware of their risk of late effects. Participants conceptualised late effects as any long-term effect of treatment regardless of the time of onset. Women reported living with constant uncertainty and feared cancer recurrence. Many were focused on managing long-term treatment side effects, rather than late effects.Conclusion Many women undergo treatment and remain unaware of associated late effect risks. National guidelines recommend patients be informed about late effects however the results of this study suggest a gap between policy and practice. Evidence-based interventions are needed to equip women with strategies to physically and emotionally manage late effects.

“…Shared-care models involving the oncology care team and primary care physician were identified most often in the caring for colorectal cancer survivors. 5 These models were used to provide ongoing care, screening for tumor recurrence, evaluation for secondary-tumor occurrence, cancer prevention, management of late side effects, and coordination with primary care and specialty physicians. 5 However, many of these models are too broad with respect to cancer type and do not offer sufficient guidance on how to address the unique needs of other gastrointestinal (GI) cancer survivors.…”

GI cancer patients (gastric, pancreas, liver, colon, rectal, and anal) often undergo not only chemoradiation therapy but also complex GI surgeries with associated cancer-related sequelae and treatment-related late effects.…”

Gastrointestinal Disease–Specific Survivorship Care: A New Personalized Model Integrating Onco-Wellness

Although the number of gastrointestinal (GI) cancer survivors is projected to increase in the coming years, there are currently no survivorship care models that address the specific and growing needs of this population. Current survivorship care models were evaluated to assess their suitability for GI cancer survivors. A survivorship care model based on foundational wellness principles is under development to address the specific needs of GI cancer survivors. This model delivers a cohesive and collaborative care continuum for survivors of different GI malignancies. Oncology providers in GI departments and internal medicine providers in survivorship programs are positioned to provide a comprehensive approach for the care of patients treated with curative intent. Survivorship care is introduced at the conclusion of active treatment in the form of an Onco-wellness consultation, an in-person or telemedicine comprehensive care plan creation and review by our Survivorship Program. Personalized care plan including long term and late effects of treatment, nutrition, physical activity and rehabilitation recommendations, prevention of secondary malignancies and psychosocial needs are reviewed. As patients transition from active treatment to survivorship within the GI Program, the GI Advance Practice Professionals (APPs) are well-positioned to deliver comprehensive survivorship care specific to the GI patient’s needs while integrating recommendations and principles from the Onco-wellness consultation. With projected shortages of both oncology and primary care physicians, such an APP-based model has the potential to bridge gaps in the survivorship care continuum and mutually benefit patients and physicians.
