Multidisciplinary Complex Assessment: Routine multidisciplinary assessment conducted in a Day Hospital setting involving consultations with healthcare professionals (pharmacist, dietitian, psychologist, social worker, and supportive care providers) as part of standard oncology care.

Study summary

This study aims to evaluate patient satisfaction following a multidisciplinary "complex assessment" conducted in a Day Hospital setting at the Centre Hospitalier de Martigues. This assessment is part of routine care for patients diagnosed with cancer and scheduled to receive injectable anticancer treatment.

During this assessment, patients meet several healthcare professionals, including a pharmacist, dietitian, psychologist, social worker, and supportive care providers. The objective is to identify patient-specific needs and improve coordination of care at an early stage of the treatment pathway.

This is a prospective observational study based on an anonymous satisfaction questionnaire distributed to eligible adult patients after completion of the Day Hospital assessment. The primary objective is to assess overall patient satisfaction. Secondary objectives include evaluating satisfaction by specialty, identifying factors associated with satisfaction, and assessing the Net Promoter Score (NPS).

The results of this study are expected to help identify strengths and areas for improvement in multidisciplinary care, enhance patient-centered care, and support continuous quality improvement in oncology practice.
