BACKGROUND: Social determinants have an important role in the survival of breast cancer patients. AIM: This article aims to reviews the social determinants that affect the survival of breast cancer patient. METHODS: We searched PubMed and Google Scholar for identifying studies related to this review using free-text terms and Medical Subject Headings terms. Both experimental and observational studies on social determinants of breast cancer patient survival which were published in the English language have been included in this review except expert opinions, commentaries, editorials, and review articles. Ten studies were eligible to be included in review. RESULTS: Social health determinants that play a role in the survival of breast cancer patients are education level, place of residence, socioeconomic status, social environment, racial discrimination, and access to health services. CONCLUSION: Social determinants have an influence on the survival of breast cancer patients, so it is important to pay attention to these factors.

Office Location

Summary This study was conducted to understand the impact of oncology social work office location on breast cancer patients’ access and utilization of social work services. It also explored the current status of oncology social work offices and the perceptions among Association of Oncology Social Work Listserv members. The frequency and types of interventions and referral time were determined retrospectively. Association of Oncology Social Work Listserv members were surveyed. Findings From 461 new breast cancer patient charts, 52 were referred to social work during study period. Face-to-face interventions decreased by 0.8 contact ( p = .0221) and telephone interventions increased by 1.8 contacts ( p = .0293) after social work office was relocated away from clinical area. Referral time to social work services decreased unexpectedly by 14.5 days ( p = .076) after office relocation. Association of Oncology Social Work Listserv survey results identify an office location as possible barrier, though most respondents have a private office in clinical area, accessible to patients. Survey finding is limited due to low response rate. Applications There are many challenges to ensuring timey and effective delivery of social work services to breast cancer patients. Social Ecological framework is used to understand the impacts of office location on access to social work services. Study results suggest that office relocation has had mix impacts on patients. Raising awareness of social worker services among patients early in cancer trajectory is needed for patient empowerment and to ensure access to social work services. Further research is needed to understand barriers, identify effective strategies in order to guide and improve clinical practice.
