Summary
This study is testing a program called Care and Connect, where trained volunteers provide support and information to people with lung cancer. The goal is to see if this program helps reduce distress and makes it easier for patients to get the care they need. About 50 adults with lung cancer will take part, with half receiving the volunteer support and half getting usual care. The study will check if the program is practical and helpful.
