2 Define Survivorship Demonstrate understanding of the history of cancer survivorship State the requirements of the Commission on Cancer of the American College of Surgeons Standard of Survivorship

3 According to the National Cancer Institute, a Survivor is: One who remains alive and continues to function during and after overcoming a serious hardship or lifethreatening disease. In cancer, a person is considered to be a survivor from the time of diagnosis until the end of life.

4 Include family and friends Begins when treatment ends Do not include patients with metastaic disease Is considered living with, through and beyond a cancer diagnosis

5 1985-Fitzhugh Mullen Seasons of Survivorship Acute Survivorship Extended Survivorship Permanent Survivorship

6 1986-The NCCS was founded to advocate for cancer survivors

7 1996-The Office for Cancer Survivorship of the National Cancer Institute was established to focus on research into issues facing individuals with cancer.

8 2005-The Institute of Medicine published their report on cancer survivorship

9 Psychological Distress Sexual Dysfunction Infertility Impaired organ function Cosmetic changes Limitations in mobility, communication and cognition

10 Recognizing Survivorship as a distinct phase of cancer care Ensuring delivery of appropriate survivorship care Expanding research efforts in survivorship Eliminating discrimination and adverse effects on employment Ensuring access to good health insurance

11 In 2008, Dr. Kenneth Miller revisited Dr. Mullen s Seasons of Survival. With earlier diagnoses and more effective treatment, more people are living through and beyond cancer and many are now living with cancer as a chronic disease.

12 Acute Survivorship: Time of Diagnosis Time of treatment

13 Transitional Survivorship-Immediately after treatment ends

14 Extended Survivorship-Those who have completed treatment, are living with cancer as a chronic disease or are in remission because of ongoing treatment

15 Permanent Survivorship- Cancer free and asymptomatic Cancer free with long term/late problems Develop secondary cancers unrelated to early treatment Have secondary cancers related to treatment

17 Written in 2012 to be implemented in 2015, this standard requires: A Survivorship Care plan prepared by the principal provider Given to the patient on completion of treatment Contains a record of the care receivedwith a follow up plan

18 In September of 2014, the CoC released clarifications to the standard that was to be implemented in January of 2015 A survey had been done to all member organizations and only 37% of responders were completely confident that their program would be able to implement the standard by January 63% of organizations felt this was the most difficult new standard to implement

19 The standard is only for patients receiving curative treatment The survivorship requirement is now being rolled out gradually over five years Cancer programs have more flexibility in choosing who will create the plan and who should distribute the plan to patients Minimum information to be included in the plans was clarified

20 Treatment summary Contact information of treating institutions and providers Specific diagnosis, including histological type Surgery Chemotherapy Radiation Ongoing toxicity or side effects of treatment Genetic or hereditary risk factors/genetic Testing Results

21 Follow up care plan: Oncology team member contacts Schedule of related clinical visits Cancer Surveillance tests for recurrence Cancer screening tests for early detection and who will be responsible for ordering Need for Ongoing adjuvant therapy Name of Therapy Planned Duration Expected Side effects

24 Is a distinct phase of cancer treatment Was first recognized by the IOM in 2005 Effects almost 14 million cancer survivors today Is being phased in as a CoC standard beginning in 2015
