RECRUITMENT FOR A RESEARCH STUDY: Managing Your Caregiver Worries

Do you worry about your loved one’s cancer coming back? Do you worry weeks before your loved one’s follow-up appointments? Do your worries about your loved one’s cancer coming back cause you distress or affect your daily life?

If so, a brief online group study is being offered to address these worries.

Who can participate? Women, living in Ontario, who currently provide unpaid support to a loved one:
• who is 18 years of age or older
• who has recently been diagnosed with cancer and has finished their treatment
• who has not experienced a cancer recurrence
• and worry about cancer for themselves or their loved ones
• and are interested in exploring their fear of cancer recurrence
• and are willing to participate in seven weekly small online group meetings
• and are willing to answer questionnaire packages at various points in time

 

Research conducted by Dr. Sophie Lebel & Dr. Rinat Nissim
