A Blueprint of Care for Teenagers and Young Adults with Cancer.

The document makes an important contribution to describing the core elements of care for young people facing the challenge of cancer. Those involved in its production have shared their experiences and their values in this document to help ensure that care is as good as it can be for a group of patients who, too often, remain at risk of missing out on the best possible holistic care when diagnosed with cancer.

The document affirms for those in the field what is important, and for those developing new services, it will provide a much needed first point of guidance that will shape the environment, philosophy and approach to care of their unit. The document might also indicate to teams where innovation and practice development opportunities might be available as we continue to shape services through patient and family input.
