  • Title: [Responsibilities of psycho-oncology].
    Author: Hofer T.
    Journal: Ther Umsch; 1998 Jul; 55(7):415-7. PubMed ID: 9702107.
    Abstract:
    Psychooncology is the application of the biopsychosocial concept with cancer patients. Advising the patient and his circle of relatives and friends in crises, discussing topics important to the patient and negotiating in difficult situations makes it possible for the patient and his relatives and friends to take active part in coping with the illness. This also serves to relieve nurses and physicians in their care of the patient.
