Improving cancer survivors’ quality of life

Cancer survivors frequently report difficulties communicating with oncologists, GPs and nurses.

SmartCARE is developing a ‘Cancer Survivor Smart Card’. This digital tool decreases the communication gap between survivors and health and social-care providers. These providers promote citizen empowerment through patient-centered care and ultimately enhance the quality of life and of cancer survivors. ECO is coordinating this EU Project under the EU4Health Programme 2021-2027, focused on sustainability and user needs.

smartCARE promises to:

• Collaborate with the app developer to co-create the Cancer Survivor Smartcard App
• Provide high quality follow-up care by requiring access to the patient’s clinical history
• Give cancer patients and survivors personalised follow-up care
• Improve healthcare provider and survivor communication on the survivor’s needs & worries
