Use and need for psychosocial support in cancer patients

Abstract

To the authors' knowledge, this population‐based study (n = 1809) is the first systematic exploration of the use and need for psychosocial support in patients with minor children, providing a comprehensive understanding of family‐relevant and child‐relevant concerns and distress for these patients. The findings suggest that parental cancer should be considered in adult health care planning and psychosocial clinical services.
