Abstract:

The impact of a breast cancer diagnosis goes beyond the early diagnosis and treatment phases. While survival has improved significantly over the last decade, women report ongoing quality of life (survivorship) concerns as a result of their diagnosis and treatment. There are many models of supportive care available in Australia, including those provided by specialist breast care nurses, general practitioners, peer support groups and cancer support agencies and councils, and more recently those provided through virtual platforms. Most models of care in Australia recognise the need to provide supportive care throughout the treatment trajectory and beyond, yet there remains an inconsistent pattern in providing coordinated supportive care post completion of acute treatment. This review provides a brief synopsis of some of the models of supportive care available within and outside of Australia.
