Improving access to information and support for patients with less common cancers: hematologic cancer patients’ views about web-based approaches Full Text

Promoting greater understanding of this mode of support may be required to achieve its potential. Information and support options other than Web–based approaches may continue to be needed by vulnerable groups of cancer survivors.
