| dc.description | The following outlines best practice guidance, developed by the NCCP for Community Cancer Support Centres and Services. The guidance will promote good practice across the sector, and assist in how to provide and manage services. It will also facilitate the on-going development and improvement of collaborative practice between the designated cancer centres, systemic anti-cancer therapy (SACT) hospitals, community cancer support centres and services and national support organisations (e.g.) CanTeen, Hand-in-Hand etc. and work towards a fair and equitable system to allocate future funding to support centres.The Best Practice Guidance has the potential to enhance the support offered to people who are living with cancer, their families and carers, and to help ensure that there is consistency of practice of verifiable high quality across Community Cancer Support Centres and Services.This guidance document was developed by a multidisciplinary working group comprising front line direct and indirect service providers and professionals from a range of cancer support centres across the country, as well as management, and a patient representative (Appendix 1). It also builds on the affiliation programme for cancer support centres run by the Irish Cancer Society over the past decade and seeks to expand and refine the role of community cancer support in Ireland. | en_US |
