Oncology social workers and oncology psychologists are playing a growing role in providing quality, patient-centered cancer care to VA patients according to Jennifer Dimick, MSSA, LISW, OSW-C.
“We designed this clinic where we had interpersonal care along with learners,” Dimick explained. “One of the things we wanted to do was pilot the different psychosocial standards… and show that it was sustainable so that this care could go out to different clinics in the VA.”
