Psychosocial Morbidity

Abstract: Around 32–60% of breast cancer patients have high levels of distress related to the impact of their disease and treatment consequences on their lives. There is evidence that psychosocial care and interventions can reduce the emotional impact of cancer and improve the quality of life for women affected by breast cancer. Inequalities in cancer care across countries contribute to different outcomes for patients. Psychosocial morbidity associated with cancer adds to the cancer burden if left unaddressed. However, psycho-oncological services are irregularly provided across countries and regions and do not cover entire populations. To improve patient outcomes, it is necessary to integrate distress screening and psycho-oncological care into standard cancer care from diagnosis, across treatment through all phases of disease, and survivorship as a vital part of comprehensive high-quality cancer care. Psycho-oncology professionals are aware of the need and the evidence. Responsibility for improvements must rest with all health professionals, services, and administrators involved in cancer care. ‘Whole of patient care’ requires ‘whole of system’ response.
