Survivorship Care and Care Plans: Transforming Challenges into OpportunitiesCarevive
Dr. Carrie Stricker attended last month's Arizona Cancer Survivorship Care Plan Summit in Phoenix Arizona. The summit was a joint effort between the Arizona Cancer Coalition , the Arizona Department of Health Services, and the Susan G. Komen® Central and Northern Arizona.
Comprehensive Cancer Control (CCC) Programs work in their community to promote healthy lifestyles and recommended cancer screening, educate people about cancer symptoms, increase access to quality cancer care, and enhance cancer survivors' quality of care. The Arizona Department of Health Services developed the Arizona Cancer Coalition for dedicated individuals, professionals, and cancer survivors to address the priorities outlined in the Arizona Cancer Control Plan. These priorities include prevent cancer, detect cancer early, elevate cancer treatment, galvanize quality of life/survivorship care networks, and catalyze research.
Susan G. Kamen® Central and Northern Arizona is one of 120 Affiliates around the world dedicated to combating breast cancer at every front. Its service area encompasses all of central and northern Arizona, including Apache, Coconino, Gila, La Paz, Maricopa, Mohave, Navajo, Pinal and Yavapai counties. Through events like the Susan G. Kamen Phoenix Race for the Cure®, the Affiliate has invested more than $26.4 million in local breast health and breast cancer awareness projects in central and northern Arizona, and breast cancer research.
This summit served as a forum for clinicians, nurses, program planners, and public health professionals within Commission on Cancer (CoC) accredited hospitals to learn about survivorship care plans and address the implementation of standard 3.3 of CoC accreditation.

Health Education on prevention of hypertensionRadhika kulvi
Hypertension is a chronic condition of concern due to its role in the causation of coronary heart diseases. Hypertension is a worldwide epidemic and important risk factor for coronary artery disease, stroke and renal diseases. Blood pressure is the force exerted by the blood against the walls of the blood vessels and is sufficient to maintain tissue perfusion during activity and rest. Hypertension is sustained elevation of BP. In adults, HTN exists when systolic blood pressure is equal to or greater than 140mmHg or diastolic BP is equal to or greater than 90mmHg. The

7. Principle 1
People with cancer have the right to a system of
universal health care. This access should not be
precluded because of preexisting conditions,
genetic or other risk factors, or employment status.
National Coalition for Cancer Survivorship:
Imperatives for Quality Cancer Care
Principle 2
Quality cancer care should be available in a health
care system whose standards and guidelines are
developed in consideration of treating the whole
person with cancer. Health care plans must regard
the cancer patient as an autonomous individual
who has the right to be involved in decisions about
his or her care.
Hewi% M, Simone JV, editors. Ensuring Quality Cancer Care. Washington, DC: The Na8onal Academy Press; 1999.
8. Principle 3
Standards of cancer care should be driven by the
quality of care, not only by the cost of care, and
should include participation in clinical trials and
quality-of-life considerations.
National Coalition for Cancer Survivorship:
Imperatives for Quality Cancer Care
Principle 4
All people diagnosed with cancer should have
access to and coverage for services provided by a
multidisciplinary team of care providers across the
full continuum of care. Health care plans should be
held accountable for timely referral to appropriate
specialists when symptoms of cancer or its
recurrence may be present.
Hewi% M, Simone JV, editors. Ensuring Quality Cancer Care. Washington, DC: The Na8onal Academy Press; 1999.
9.
10. Principle 5
People with cancer should be provided a range of
benefits by all health care plans that include
primary and secondary prevention; early detection;
initial treatment; supportive therapies to manage
pain, nausea, fatigue, and infections; long-term
follow-up; psychosocial services; palliative care;
hospice care; and bereavement counseling.
National Coalition for Cancer Survivorship:
Imperatives for Quality Cancer Care
Principle 6
People with histories of cancer have the right to
continued medical follow-up with basic standards of
care that include the specific needs of long-term
survivors.
Hewi% M, Simone JV, editors. Ensuring Quality Cancer Care. Washington, DC: The Na8onal Academy Press; 1999.
11. Principle 7
Long-term survivors should have access to
specialized follow-up clinics that focus on health
promotion, disease prevention, rehabilitation, and
identification of physiologic and psychosocial
problems. Communication with the primary care
physician must be maintained.
National Coalition for Cancer Survivorship:
Imperatives for Quality Cancer Care
Principle 8
Systematic long-term follow-up should generate
data that contribute to improvements in cancer
therapies and decreases in morbidity.
Hewi% M, Simone JV, editors. Ensuring Quality Cancer Care. Washington, DC: The Na8onal Academy Press; 1999.
12. Hewi% M, Simone JV, editors. Ensuring Quality Cancer Care. Washington, DC: The Na8onal Academy Press; 1999.
Principle 9
The responsibility for appropriate long-term medical
care must be shared by cancer survivors, their
families, the oncology team, and primary care
providers.
National Coalition for Cancer Survivorship:
Imperatives for Quality Cancer Care
Principle 10
The provision of psychosocial services must be
safeguarded and promoted. Persons diagnosed
with cancer should receive psychosocial
assessments at critical junctures along the
continuum of cancer care to determine the
availability of needed support and their ability to
seek information and advocate on their own behalf.
Hewi% M, Simone JV, editors. Ensuring Quality Cancer Care. Washington, DC: The Na8onal Academy Press; 1999.
13. Hewi% M, Simone JV, editors. Ensuring Quality Cancer Care. Washington, DC: The Na8onal Academy Press; 1999.
Principle 11
Psychosocial research is integral to comprehensive
cancer care, and as such, psychosocial outcome
measures should be included in all future clinical
trials. The importance of this research and its
application and transfer to oncology care plans
should be recognized and encouraged.
National Coalition for Cancer Survivorship:
Imperatives for Quality Cancer Care
Principle 12
Cancer survivors, health care providers, and other key
constituency groups must work together to
increase public awareness; educate consumers,
professionals, and public policy makers; develop
guidelines and disseminate information; advocate
for increased research funding; and articulate for
and promote survivors' rights.
Hewi% M, Simone JV, editors. Ensuring Quality Cancer Care. Washington, DC: The Na8onal Academy Press; 1999.

of Cancer Care in America. Cancer. 2012;118:2571-82.
18. Recommendation 4
Ensure the following elements of quality care for
each individual with cancer:
1) that recommendations about initial cancer management
are made by experienced professionals;
2) an agreed-upon care plan that outlines goals of care;
3) access to the full complement of resources necessary to
implement the care plan;
4) access to high-quality clinical trials;
5) policies to ensure full disclosure of information about
appropriate treatment options;
6) a mechanism to coordinate services; and
7) psychosocial support services and compassionate care.
