- Description
- Assessing patient‐centred care in medical oncology is essential for informing quality improvement. Medical oncology patients have rated interpersonal and technical aspects of nursing care highly but reported that patient information needed improvements. Evaluating multiple treatment centres can identify whether or not provision of patient-centred care varies by treatment centre attended. Identifying characteristics associated with patients' perceived care is important for prioritising which patient subgroups may benefit from improved access and/or enhanced services. Medical oncology patients who were older, male, more educated, and had lower anxiety have perceived receiving higher quality care.
