“Our team wanted to better understand how to deliver coordinated care for people with primary brain tumours. We did a scoping review which included 30 eligible reports. Most described nurse-led models of care within single tertiary care centres in metropolitan settings: a single HCP acting as primary contact, educator, and liaison, screening patient/carer distress and providing referrals as key components of CC. Clinical guidelines emphasise healthcare system navigation and access to medical care in CC. A CC approach overseeing the whole PBT trajectory was lacking. Facilitators of CC included availability of HCP dedicated to CC; HCPs’ competency in relationship-based and communication skills; and improved access to resources. System-level and resource barriers to CC were identified.”
