We at the National Coalition for Cancer Survivorship (NCCS) often hear from patients that they wish they would have received important information regarding their care earlier in their cancer journey. Furthermore, many report that they feel especially isolated when transitioning from active treatment into survivorship.

The Cancer Survivorship Checklist is designed to be a simple, straightforward tool patients and caregivers can use as a guide for information critical to their care wherever they are on the cancer care continuum. In creating the checklist, we consulted a number of NCCS advisors, including cancer survivors and health care professionals with a wide range of experience.
