Help improve NHS sarcoma services
Sarcoma UK is gathering views on NHS sarcoma care across the UK. Your experiences are crucial in shaping future improvements. This will help us to better understand how well the NHS is doing and what it needs to improve.
Who can take part?
- People who have or have had sarcoma
- Family members or carers of someone with sarcoma
Will you be seeking any other views or evidence?
Yes, we will be asking people and organisations in the following groups to respond to questions in our Call for Evidence about sarcoma care:
We invite people who work in the NHS and researchers to submit responses. You can access the questions here. This will download a Word document to your device.
We will also be asking governments and the NHS in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, as well as charities, to send us their responses in writing.
What will we ask?
Questions cover various aspects of sarcoma care, including:
- GP visits
- Diagnosis
- Treatment
- Follow-up care
How will we use your information?
Your responses will:
- Be combined with other feedback and evidence
- Help create a comprehensive report on sarcoma care
- Inform the recommendations of the report and allow us to tell governments and the NHS in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, what is good about sarcoma care and what needs to improve, helping to ensure that everyone with sarcoma receives the best care possible.
