Patient Navigation

NDURE is a theory-based, multi-level patient navigation (PN) intervention consisting of clinic-based sessions of manualized PN to reduce barriers to care, increase HNC care delivery, and improve clinical outcomes (timely, equitable PORT). NDURE will be delivered from surgical consultation to PORT initiation (\~3 months). The three in-person NDURE sessions, which are expected to take 30-60 minutes each, will coincide with the presurgical consult, hospital discharge, and 1st postoperative clinic visit. During the first session, the navigator will 1) elicit barriers and facilitators to timely PORT, 2) develop the personalized barrier reduction plan (BRP), review the BRP with the patient, caregiver, and provider, and 3) implement the BRP. At the two subsequent sessions, the navigator will review and update the BRP in an iterative, dynamic fashion, identifying new barriers and systematically tracking resolution of prior barriers until the start of PORT.
