The online recording of psychological well-being with psycho-oncological care as requested is an offer from the University Cancer Center Inselspital (UCI).
Cancer affects you as a whole person. In addition to the challenges of the often extensive therapies and the physical impairments, you and those around you have to adapt to a changed life situation. Psycho-oncology deals with the psychological and social consequences of cancer.
The UCI offers online recording of psychological well-being and the possibility of psycho-oncological care for patients with cancer.
With this offer you can record your well-being and psychological stress using your smartphone or screen and receive psycho-oncological care if necessary. We also offer you this as part of a clinical trial. By participating, you can help improve referral to psycho-oncological care.
Regularly assessing your stress and well-being can help you better understand your emotional state. Being able to recognize and classify stressful feelings such as fears, depressive feelings or worries about the future at an early stage can be helpful for you.
Based on your answers, you will receive a recommendation for possible support and can choose between different contact options. Data transmission is encrypted. The completed questionnaires are saved in your personal Evita-health dossier.
