这位学生研究员目前正在进行一项实证研究，收集关于乳腺癌幸存者的经历和应对机制以及对eHNA的看法的定性数据，这将为本研究提供基础。拟议的博士研究的目的是为医疗保健专业人员制定一个框架，允许在评估担忧和后续行动之间更好地整合，解决癌症康复的心理方面。主要目标包括：确定eHNA评价表和护理计划是否为指导护理和转诊到精神卫生服务提供了有价值的工具；确定医疗专业人员在评估过程中采取行动的障碍；了解关键心理问题的个人经历和工作人员对这些问题的理解。制定一个框架，更好地整合预防、治疗和康复方面的评估和行动。这也将提供一条结构化的途径，弥合急性、社区和专科护理服务之间的差距。

The student researcher is currently undertaking an empirical study collecting qualitative data on the experiences and coping mechanisms of breast cancer survivors and views of the eHNA, which will provide a foundation for this study. The aim of the proposed PhD study is to produce a framework for healthcare professionals, allowing for better integration between assessment of concerns and subsequent actions addressing the psychological aspects of recovery from cancer. Key objectives include:To determine whether the eHNA rating scale and care plan provide a valuable tool for guiding care and referral onto mental health services.To determine barriers to healthcare professionals' action during the assessment process.To understand individual experiences of key psychological issues and staff understanding of these.To produce a framework that will better integrate assessment and action towards prevention, treatment and recovery. This will also provide a structured pathway that bridges the gap between acute, community and specialist care services.
