| Core Tip |
There was variability in assessment methods and access to supporting services for older people with cancer in the United Kingdom. Performance status and traditional history-taking was preferred to scoring tools. Future studies should consider moving away from scoring tools if the intention is for use in clinical practice. There was variability in access to key supporting services. Developing care pathways to better link up existing services would be a helpful. Collaborative working with geriatricians appears supported. A number of questions remain. How can comprehensive geriatric assessment be feasibly embedded within cancer care pathways across a nation? |
