answer text <p>No such estimate has been made. Mental health therapists are not specifically trained on blood cancer as a condition, however cancer as a general condition forms part of the training which aims to enable experienced psychological well-being practitioners and high intensity therapists to deliver National Institute for Health and Care Excellence recommended treatments for people presenting to Improving Access to Psychological Therapies services with long-term physical conditions such as diabetes, cardiac disease, respiratory disease, and cancer with accompanying low mood and/or anxiety. The training focuses on high intensity and low intensity approaches to support people with mental health problems and physical long-term conditions or persistent and distressing medically unexplained symptoms.</p> more like this

answer text <p>Psychological support for cancer is a specialised area and is often offered within cancer teams via health psychology teams. Adults experiencing all forms of cancer are able to access Improving Access to Psychological Therapies services which provide evidence-based psychological therapies for people with anxiety disorders and depression. Recovery Package interventions will help ensure patients have more personal care and support from the point they are diagnosed. Two of the key interventions within the Recovery Package, the Health Needs Assessment and Care Plans, will enable patients to be sign-posted or referred to psychological support, where necessary.</p><p> </p><p>Personalised follow up and support to help people live well with and beyond cancer is one of the key strategic priorities in the Cancer Strategy for England, which aims to create world class cancer services. NHS England will roll out Recovery Package interventions nationally by 2020 so they are available to all cancer patients across the country regardless of location. All Cancer Alliances are receiving funding in 2018/19 to support implementation of the Recovery Package.</p>

answer text <p>The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) published guidance recommending ibrutinib for use in the treatment of previously treated chronic lymphocytic leukaemia and previously untreated chronic lymphocytic leukaemia with 17p deletion or TP53 mutation in January 2017. NHS England is legally required to fund drugs and treatments recommended in NICE technology appraisal guidance in line with NICE’s recommendations.</p><p> </p><p>NICE has not been able to make a recommendation on the use of ibrutinib for use in the treatment of other patients with chronic lymphocytic leukaemia because no evidence submission was received from the product’s manufacturer. Ibrutinib is not therefore routinely commissioned for National Health Service patients for these other indications. NICE will review this decision if the company decides to make an evidence submission.</p> more like this

answer text <p>Early diagnosis of blood cancers is difficult as symptoms, such as tiredness or back pain, are often misdiagnosed. For suspected blood cancers, the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence published a revised guideline in 2015 which clearly sets out that general practitioners should consider a very urgent full blood count within 48 hours to assess for leukaemia if adults present with suspicious symptoms.</p><p> </p><p>In December 2016 NHS England announced transformation funding of £200 million for Cancer Alliances to encourage new and innovative ways to diagnose cancer earlier, improve the care for those living with cancer and ensure that each cancer patient gets the right care for them.</p><p> </p><p>Additionally, the Accelerate, Coordinate and Evaluate Programme is a unique early diagnosis initiative, a programme of 60 projects exploring innovative concepts of diagnosing cancer earlier across England. The programme is testing a new multi-disciplinary diagnostic centre approach to diagnosing patients with vague or unclear but concerning symptoms, often characteristic of hard to diagnose cancers like blood cancers.</p>

answer text <p>The Recovery Package is designed to help patients and clinicians assess a patient’s holistic needs and plan appropriately for their care and support. It includes a Holistic Needs Assessment (HNA) and Care Plan. This guides a conversation about the person’s holistic needs (physical, psychosocial, financial and social) in order to identify any concerns. An HNA should take place within 31 days of diagnosis and at the end of each acute phase of treatment and the Care Plan updated each time. The Recovery Package is being commissioned and delivered in full or in part by many clinical commissioning groups and providers across England. Our aim now is to accelerate the process, to ensure full implementation by 2020 - available to all cancer patients.</p> more like this
