Patients attending pre-operative assessment
(n=25) were invited to attend the supportive
care clinic. Patients were seen in the clinic for
pre-assessment in one room, then met the CnS for
supportive care in another. In total, 19 patients
attended for supportive care. An assessment was
completed using the holistic assessment of concerns
tool with 15 of the 19 patients who were able
to identify concerns pre-operatively. Four patients
were unable to complete the assessment as they
were too distressed.
