Summary

This study looks at whether training and support can help cancer clinics give special check-ups (called geriatric assessments) to patients aged 65 and older who are starting a new cancer treatment. These check-ups help find and address health issues, support needs, and daily life challenges. The goal is to make these assessments easier for clinics to use and improve care for older adults with cancer.
