Cancer follow up care – the views of patients and carers expressed in a range of focus groups

Picker was commissioned by NHS Improvement (formerly the Cancer Services Collaborative ‘Improvement Partnership’) and Macmillan Cancer Support to examine patient and carer views of health and social care services following treatment for cancer. The views gathered were examined to identify both commonality and difference of opinion. In addition the views of each group were separately examined to establish both areas of consensus and disagreement between the groups.
