Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Lay Health Worker (LHW) Planning

Patients randomized to the LHW group will receive usual care provided by their oncology (or primary) clinical team along with an initial 30-minute telephone call with the LHW from Palo Alto, followed by weekly 15-minute phone calls (or as needed) for 6months. These calls are designed to assist with healthcare planning, symptom management, and discussions about care preferences and goals.

OTHER

Usual Care Group

Participants randomized to the usual care group will receive usual care provided by their oncology clinical team. These teams have been trained in symptom assessment, goals-of-care (GoC) discussions, and documentation of such clinical services. As part of usual care, participants may engage in symptom and GoC discussions at any time, initiated by either the patient or the clinician.
