Summary

This study tests whether a specially trained nurse-led team can help people recover better after head and neck cancer surgery. The team includes nurses, doctors, dietitians, and counselors who create a personalized care plan. Researchers will compare 80 patients who get this extra support with those who receive standard care, looking at complications, nutrition, and quality of life.
