Breast cancer patients have the best experience
while sarcoma patients have the worst
*Urological excludes Prostate cancer which was included as a separate tumour group in the survey.
# 32 questions identified significant differences. Factual questions were excluded as Trusts are not been rated on their performance for these.

Example: There is large variation in GP visits and
subsequent health depending on cancer
A separate study found that a third of patients were reassured and not
asked to return at the end of the initial appointment with their GP but
were subsequently diagnosed with a rarer cancer (not the top 4)

Given written information about type of cancer
Given name of CNS
We don’t know exactly how many people have a recurrence in England BUT we do
know that their experience is worse than those more recently diagnosed

Patients with long-term conditions are less likely to be
positive about their experience than those without
Q18 Given written information about the side effects of treatment
by long-term condition and CNS/No CNS

Patient experience is poor for some information related
questions & there is huge variation between Trusts
Q15 Patient given written information about the
type of cancer they had
Q18 Patient given written information about
side effects
Q25 Hospital staff gave information about
support groups
Q26 Hospital staff gave information on getting
financial help
Q31 Patient given written information about the
operation
Q49 Given clear written information about what
should / should not do post discharge
Q51 Family definitely given all information
needed to help care at home
