Background: Cancer has adverse consequences for mental health, especially in women. Lack of awareness of services and stigma diminish access to psycho-oncology services.
Aims: To assess psychological distress and willingness to engage in multidisciplinary psycho-oncological services among cancer patients.
Purpose: Screening, triage and referral systems are proposed as efficient, needs-based models of cancer rehabilitation. This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of the PERCS triage and referral system.
Methods: Utilising a pre-post design, the feasibility of PERCS was evaluated quantitatively in the context of a physiotherapy-led clinic for patients diagnosed with cancer during COVID-19.
