Thanks to your support brainstrust has been able to publish the first comprehensive, easy to understand guide to the adult brain tumour care pathway.
This will help people know what to expect and to feel more in control on their journey.
Written alongside esteemed clinicians and expert patients and carers, and in accordance with NHS England's Information Standard, this guide will prove invaluable to people on the bewildering journey that comes with having a brain tumour.
The guide is based on the NHS and National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) 2006 Improving Outcomes Guidance (or IOG) and will help brain tumour patients and carers understand:
-
What happens at each point in the brain tumour pathway (i.e. diagnosis, treatment, follow up care).
-
What the optimum standard of care is (according to the NHS and the IOG) at each point of the pathway.
-
What else brainstrust thinks you can expect – to help you make the most of the resources around you.
-
Suggested questions you can ask clinicians
-
What brainstrust can do to help.
