Yorkshire Cancer Patient Forum – key findings from the Clinical Nurse Specialist survey

News - 3 January 2019

From July to September 2018 the Yorkshire Cancer Patient Forum hosted a survey, supported by Healthwatch Wakefield, to hear the views and experiences of people affected by cancer in the region.

In particular, they wanted to understand more about the role of Clinical Nurse Specialists in people’s care.

The Yorkshire Cancer Patient Forum would like to thank all the patients and carers who took the time to complete the surveys and share their views, and also to healthcare professionals who circulated the survey to their patients.

Key findings from the survey:
