A nursing intervention aimed at reducing symptom burden during chemotherapy (CHEMO-SUPPORT): A mixed-methods study of the patient experience.

CONCLUSIONS: The CHEMO-SUPPORT intervention made patients feel more reassured and empowered in dealing with symptoms at home. That the CHEMO-SUPPORT experience was influenced by personal and contextual factors highlights the importance of tailoring the intervention to each patient, as well as improving supportive and competent symptom-management support in daily oncology care.
