一项描述性研究使用了两份由访谈者填写的问卷，目的是更多地了解癌症支持团体和使用这些服务的人。调查期间，在苏格兰西部参加6个癌症支持团体的71名患者及其亲属都接受了采访。他们被问及对护理和支持的满意度、过去和现在的关切、全球健康和生活质量以及需求。大多数参与者是已婚妇女，中产阶级，年龄在50-65岁之间，并且是长期幸存者。百分之五十二的癌症病人及百分之七十的癌症病人家属表示，他们对所接受的支援非常满意。近90%的患者报告说，他们在治疗前没有从癌症专家或后来的专业咨询师那里得到任何咨询。患者及其亲属的“总体感知健康”和“总体生活质量”被认为是“中等好”或“良好”。研究患者及家属的顾虑。患者报告了乐观的变化，而亲属则更为消极。需求评估表明，52%的患者需要症状缓解和家庭支持，而53%的亲属需要专业咨询师的咨询和信息支持。三分之一的患者报告说他们目前没有问题，其余的人则认为在家务、购物和交通以及经济问题上存在困难。这项研究表明，鼓励癌症患者及其亲属参加现有的癌症支持团体是有价值的。这可能有助于减轻疾病负担和家庭的护理负担。
A descriptive study using two interviewer-administered questionnaires was conducted with the aim of getting to know more about cancer support groups and the people who are using these services. All 71 patients and relatives attending six cancer support groups in the West of Scotland at the time of the investigation were interviewed. They were asked about their satisfaction with care and support, past and current concerns, global health and quality of life, and needs. The majority of participants were married women, middle class, aged 50-65 years old, and were long-time survivors. Fifty-two per cent of cancer patients and 70% of relatives of cancer patients stated that they were very satisfied with support were receiving. Nearly 90% of patients reported that they did not receive any counselling either during their pretreatment from their cancer specialists or latter from a professional counsellor. The "general perceived health" and "global quality of life" among patients and relatives were found to be moderately good or good. Concerns of patients and relatives were studied. Patients reported optimistic changes, while relatives were more negative. Needs assessment indicated that 52% of patients require symptom relief and family support, whereas 53% of relatives need counselling from a professional counsellor and informational support. One-third of patients reported that they had no problems at present, and the rest identified difficulties with home duties, shopping and transportation, and financial problems. The study suggests that there is value in encouraging cancer patients and their relatives to take part in existing cancer support groups. This may help to reduce the burden of disease and the care-burden imposed on families.
