Summary

The purpose of this study is to develop and test a model of patient navigation that investigators hope will address the unique needs of adolescent and young adult (AYA) cancer patients and their families by minimizing barriers in their care and potentially improving the outcomes of their treatment while reducing distress and enhancing quality of life. Investigators plan to achieve this by increasing access to, and use of, the resources available at Moffitt Cancer Center for AYA patients and their families.

Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Patient Navigator (PN)

Patient navigation (PN) is an intervention model designed to assist vulnerable patients in overcoming health system, personal and/or logistical barriers to care throughout the cancer care continuum. The strategic aims of PN are to reduce barriers and improve disease outcomes while also reducing distress and enhancing quality of life for the patient and family. Participants in the PN group will meet with a patient navigator.

OTHER

Baseline Questionnaire

Complete a baseline questionnaire online or by meeting with a member of the study team. This questionnaire has items asking about the participant's health, distress levels, satisfaction with their care at Moffitt Cancer Center, and what support services they have used since their diagnosis. This questionnaire will take about 15 to 20 minutes of their time.

OTHER

Follow-up Questionnaire

After participants complete the baseline questionnaire, they will be asked to complete a follow-up questionnaire approximately 6 weeks from when they completed the baseline questionnaire. The follow-up questionnaire will take about 15 to 20 minutes to complete.

OTHER

Patient Navigator Satisfaction Survey

Evaluation of Patient Navigator intervention process.
