Abstract

This article describes some of the work undertaken over
the last decade by The Cancer Council NSW—through
the Cancer Education Research Program (CERP) and the
Cancer Services Unit—to measure the supportive care
needs of cancer patients, and identify effective strategies
for attending to these needs as part of routine clinical
practice.
