I am writing to tell you about the support your GP Practice can offer during this difficult time.  \nCancer support discussion  \nIn the first few months, it can be helpful to discuss your diagnosis and how your cancer is affecting your life with one of our practice team. This could be with a practice nurse, cancer care coordinator, social prescriber (add/delete as appropriate), or a GP. If you want to have one of these discussions, please contact the practice to make an appointment.  \nSocial Prescribing  \nIf you have any worries or concerns about life with cancer, you can ask to see our practice social prescriber. Social prescribers are members of the practice team with a wealth of practical knowledge. They can provide you with short-term, regular 1-to-1 support with the impact of cancer, such as relationships, claiming benefits and practical issues like help with household tasks. They can also introduce you to local services and voluntary organisations to support any needs you have.  \nCancer Care Review  \nWithin the first year of your diagnosis, you will be offered a Cancer Care Review. We understand that everyone’s experience of cancer is unique. You may be worried about money or your job. You might want to discuss support for your family and those close to you. This is a chance for you to talk to a member of the our team about what is important to you. They can then support you to manage any issues.  \nYou can choose to have your Cancer Care Review either in person or over the phone. Some people find this most helpful after their hospital treatment has finished, or when they have been discharged from the hospital. You will be offered an appointment for this in due course, but please get in touch if you would like to have this sooner.  \nResources  \nWe have also included some cancer support resources with this letter which you may find helpful.  \nYours sincerely,  \nNAME OF SIGNING CLINICIAN  \nPractice Name  \nNCDL v1.4, Nov 2023 Review Date: Nov 2025  \nNational Cancer Support Services  \nMacmillan’s support line offers confidential support to people living with cancer and to their loved ones.
