Integrating Shared Survivorship Care into an Allogeneic Bone Marrow Transplant Long Term Follow up Service

Successful developments in disease control and management of early toxicity have seen outcome improvements in allogeneic bone marrow transplant (AlloBMT) resulting in increased numbers of patients transitioning to long term follow up (LTFU) care.LTFU care has traditionally been provided in quaternary centres by a dedicated LTFU team. A successful Victorian (Australia) Cancer Survivorship Program grant was utilised to pilot a shared survivorship model of care for eligible patients post AlloBMT. The Breaking Good shared survivorship care project built on the success in establishing a dedicated hospital based LTFU clinic by extending and modifying our service to be appropriate for and inclusive of primary care providers (PCP).
