Cancer Australia and the Victorian Department of Health and Human Services are pleased to announce the opening of the national public consultation period 9am Monday 11 September 2017 to 5pm Friday 27 October 2017 on the Optimal Care Pathway for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people with cancer (OCP).
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peak health bodies, organisations, associations and health professionals are encouraged to provide input to the draft OCP, which aims to improve cancer outcomes and experiences for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people by facilitating consistent, safe, high-quality and evidence-based cancer care based on an optimal pathway of care.
The pathway also intends to provide clinicians and health administrators with an agreed, nation-wide approach to cancer care across the cancer continuum.
The OCP and Reviewer Guidelines are available on Cancer Council Victoria's website.
