There is a need for providing high quality survivorship care for
patients with a haematological malignancy. In order to provide
coherent and quality survivorship care, a number of issues require
addressing. At the institutional level, an appropriate and feasible
model of survivorship care needs to be established. The model of
care should seek to eliminate barriers such as lack of educational
materials, time, end-of-treatment dedicated consultation, and lack
of clarity on the roles of cancer nurses in survivorship care. At the
professional level, cancer nurses need to recognise the importance
of survivorship care and be empowered with appropriate skills and
knowledge to provide quality survivorship care. Further research
should examine the perspectives of different members of the
multidisciplinary team.
