Perceptions of care coordination in cancer patient-family caregiver dyads.
The authors examined cancer patients and their family caregivers' perspectives of care coordination (CC) using a dyadic research design. They found that a subgroup of family caregivers reported poorer perception of CC than patients, suggesting that those family caregivers and providers may benefit from intervention. They concluded that further understanding of patient-family caregiver dyads' perspectives of CC can inform development of strategies to integrate family caregivers into the cancer care team, develop effective CC interventions for family caregivers, and contribute to improved quality and value of cancer care.
