Helping cancer patients transition from hospital to home
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This study looks at a better way to help you transition from the hospital to home after a cancer stay. It uses a connected device (like a smartphone) to support you and your family during the first few days back home.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part

- You are going directly home when you leave the hospital, not to another care facility.
- You can read and understand French.
