Summary
This study looked at whether cancer survivors living in rural areas can create their own survivorship care plans and learn from telehealth education. 261 survivors of breast, colorectal, lung, lymphoma, or prostate cancer took part. The goal was to see if this approach improves their knowledge and confidence in managing their health after cancer treatment.
