Grant Activity:
A new nurse-led intervention to re-engage childhood brain cancer survivors
Purpose:
Almost all childhood brain cancer survivors have health problems after they finish cancer treatment. Unfortunately, most Australian survivors are not receiving the care they need to manage these problems. We developed the Re-engage program to help childhood brain cancer survivors improve their confidence to manage their health and to improve their quality of life. Re-engage offers survivors two telehealth nurse consults and careful case review by an expert team. Our nurses create a care package for survivors which includes a summary of their care needs, a letter for their GP, referrals to specialists and education about healthy lifestyles. This trial will test the impact of Re-engage and will help us to roll-out Re-engage across Australia.
