BTOG 2017 | How to integrate supportive care in oncology?

Sam Ahmedzai, MBChB, MRCP, FRCPS, FRCP, from the University of Sheffield discusses how supportive and palliative care can be integrated in the practice of oncology in order to provide optimal care to patients. This can be achieved by bringing members of the supportive care team together with the oncology team, and promoting supportive care among oncologists. This integrated, side-by-side working model is not yet common practice but is an idea that is gathering pace.
Recorded at the 2017 meeting of the British Thoracic Oncology Group (BTOG) in Dublin, Ireland.
