Improving the Oncology Patient Journey: A Multidisciplinary Chemotherapy Class
An interdisciplinary team from the National Center for Cancer Care and Research (NCCCR) has improved the journey of patients undergoing chemotherapy treatment (chemo) by developing a chemotherapy education class to prepare patients prior to their treatment day.

The chemotherapy education class was developed through an evidence-based research and market analysis conducted at NCCCR. The study shows that since patients have been able to meet their healthcare team prior to the start of their chemotherapy, they have become more confident, showing an increased level of trust in their healthcare team.
