Several factors can increase the risk of cancer in an individual. About 50% of cancer cases can be prevented by adopting a healthy lifestyle, regular exercise, eating healthy, and following a modest cancer prevention diet. Epidemiological studies have consistently shown that populations with vegetable and fruit-rich diets have reduced the incidence of cancer. On the other hand, populations who have a diet rich in animal fat, red meat, junk food, or high calories are predisposed to cancer.

The agent-host-environment model states that disease results...

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Oncology
  • Psychiatry

Background:

  • Serious mental illnesses (SMI) are associated with reduced life expectancy due to factors like metabolic disorders and cancer.
  • Early cancer screening improves survival rates and decreases morbidity.
  • Access to cancer screening services for individuals with SMI is a critical public health concern.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To examine access to cervical, breast, and colorectal cancer screening services.
  • To identify barriers to cancer screening utilization among adults with SMI in a partial hospitalization program.

Main Methods:

  • A survey was administered to 136 adults attending partial hospitalization programs.
  • The survey included questions on cancer screening utilization, access, and barriers.
  • Data were collected using paper-and-pencil questionnaires.

Main Results:

  • Cervical and breast cancer screening rates were higher than national averages.
  • Colorectal cancer screening rates were lower than national averages.
  • The primary barrier identified was the lack of physician recommendations for screenings.

Conclusions:

  • Psychiatric nurses and behavioral health professionals can play a key role in promoting cancer screenings.
  • Enhanced communication and support are needed to address disparities in cancer screening for individuals with SMI.
  • Interventions should focus on increasing physician recommendations and patient education to improve screening rates.
