Survivorship / Supportive Care

This National Institutes of Health database of survivorship and supportive care programs helps planners find evidence-based programs for different settings, population groups, and community types. Examples include:

• Alleviating Depression Among Patients With Cancer, a hospital-based intervention delivered by social workers and a psychiatrist to enhance quality of life for cancer patients with depression
• BrainHQ, which offers cognitive training exercises to improve cognitive functioning and quality of life in breast cancer survivors who report cognitive problems
• Breast Cancer Education Intervention, which offers face-to-face and telephone-based education and support with follow-up reinforcement to address breast cancer survivors’ physical, personal, and emotional changes
