Summary

Adequate, needs-oriented psycho-oncological care contributes to reducing the burden on cancer patients and their relatives and to improving the quality of life. There is still a need for clarification regarding the need and the determination of psychosocial needs. This multi-center study (3 centers: Hanover, Leipzig and Dresden) aims at a professionalization of psychosocial screening, in order to enable thus an exact and need-based allocation to psycho-oncological support. The optimization and professionalization of the psychosocial screening process shall be achieved by a training of oncological nursing and development of an interdisciplinary care algorithm. The aim is to examine whether "OptiScreen" increases the targeted and needs-based allocation to psycho-oncology.
