Abstract:
Care organization in oncology. The health care organization for cancer patients has been built with the passing and current cancer plans, and the coordination of all the actions against cancer by the French national cancer institute. The authors describe the several phases of a patient pathway during and after cancer treatment, underline the importance of supporting good practice guidelines for health professionals, certification criteria and cancer authorization decrees for health care institutions, as well as coordination structures, and describe the specific organizations for children and elderly patients with cancer and for patients with rare cancers. Constant adaptation of the health care organization for cancer is necessary because of the rapid evolution of the treatments, as the development of ambulatory surgery and of oral chemotherapy in outpatients.
