Phase 2: Healthcare Professional Recruitment

One of the aims of the EuCan study is to explore cancer service provision amongst individuals from underserved communities. To do so, we are recruiting healthcare professionals who have experience in providing these cancer services to take part in a focus group, which allow for insight into their experiences.

Who can participate?

Healthcare professionals who are, or have been, involved in the provision of care for underserved communities. They must play a role in the detection, treatment, or management of cancer in individuals who are over 65, have a physical disability or an intellectual disability. Medical, nursing, and allied health professionals are all welcome to take part.

Aim of the Focus Group

The focus group will allow professionals to share insight into their experiences of providing cancer services to those who are members of potentially socially excluded groups. The focus group will investigate barriers and enablers of timely diagnostic access, what does and does not work well in terms of service provision, the impact on healthcare professionals, and how barriers can be overcome, and how enablers sustained and replicated.
