What this trial studies

This observational study aims to implement and evaluate an online advance care planning tool specifically designed for (hemato-)oncological patients within the Cancer Network Concord. It employs a mixed-methods approach, gathering both quantitative data from patients who have received care in the network and qualitative insights from healthcare providers and patients through interviews. The focus is on understanding how to effectively integrate advance care planning into daily oncological care, ensuring that patient preferences are discussed and respected. The study seeks to enhance the quality of care during the palliative phase of illness for these patients.
