Abstract

The scientific literature review provides a current snap shot of accurate information, and evidence on a wide range of issues relating to information needs in cancer supportive care. It may be used to underpin evidence based policy development, or it may be sought as a reference document for definitions, descriptions, methods and models of organisation and care. The review of information available from cancer network sources provides a recent picture of activities and information services, in the field, in other parts of the country. There are examples of innovation as

well as numerous useful references from web sites and networks. The study of professionals’ views provides insights from different perspectives of service delivery across the network. While a single view may see no weakness in a structure or organisation, a look from a range of differing perspectives can reveal valuable

insights, which planners and decision makers may need to address.
