Ensure patients living with and beyond cancer are well supported and receive a Cancer Care Review in line with national defined timescales and targets. Provide coordination and navigation for people and their carers across health and care services, working closely with others who can support the patients. E.g. Social Prescribers, other primary and secondary care professionals, external organisations that offer support.

Develop excellent working relationships with all partners, wider service networks including the voluntary sector, GP practices, regional screening team, Cancer Alliances, Macmillian Cancer support, adult social care, hospitals, community pharmacists and other members of the MDT.
