Regular care with additional administration of a semi-structured interview: Patients receiving regular care. In addition, a semi-structured interview is conducted.
The semi-structured interviews take place once after completion of the care pathway (after all appointments for check-ups associated with the treatment). The interview contains questions about the experience of patients with the care, the needs in this care, the experiences with the information received, the support/guidance, the turnaround time, the treatment received and areas for improvement.
Study summary
The care of patients with high-risk cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas in the head-neck area is complex and requires a multidisciplinary approach. A key component in this care is the need and experience of patients. However, studies on the experiences and needs of patients with high-risk cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas in the head-neck region are lacking.
