In Switzerland, patient experience data are collected nationally through a short survey for inpatient acute care, rehabilitation care and psychiatric care. To date, we lack data regarding cancer care, despite advocacy for specific surveys to account for the complex treatment pathways. Our main study objective was to conduct a cancer patient experience survey in the French-speaking part of Switzerland to provide robust evidence on the perceived quality of cancer care.\nThe Swiss Cancer Patient Experience (SCAPE) was a cross-sectional multicenter survey, conducted between October 2018 and March 2019, among cancer patients diagnosed with the six most frequent cancers from four large cancer centers in Romandy, the French-speaking part of Switzerland. Data were collected with a self-administered questionnaire, including questions on experiences of care as well as socio-demographic and clinical characteristics. Of the 7145 adult patients invited to complete the questionnaire, 3121 patients returned it (43.7% response rate). Of these, 2755 (88%) reported at least one eligible cancer (breast, prostate, lung, colorectal, melanoma, or hematological) and were included in the descriptive analyses. \nPatients rated their overall care at 8.5 on average (1.4 standard deviation) on a 0-10 scale. Over 80% of patients reported positive experiences with diagnostic tests, clinical nurse specialists, and hospital care as inpatient (e.g. confidence and trust in doctors, treated with respect and dignity, enough nurses on duty). However, less than 50% of patients reported positive experiences in relation to the information received at diagnosis and about treatment side-effects and symptoms, and in relation to supportive care issues, in particular regarding psycho-social, financial, family- and survivorship-related aspects of care.\nIn this first overview of patient experiences with cancer care in Romandy, we identified areas of cancer care that are more positively and less positively evaluated by a large number of patients. Our results are currently being discussed with the participating cancer centers to guide local initiatives to further improve the quality and patient-centeredness of cancer care in Switzerland.","coll_dates":[{"start":"2018-10-22","end":"2019-03-31","cycle":""}],"nation":[{"name":"Switzerland","abbreviation":"CHE"}],"geog_coverage":"French-speaking part of Switzerland","analysis_unit":"Individual.
