Brief Summary:
RATIONALE Gathering information about patients with cancer and cancer-related conditions may help doctors learn more about a patients needs and help doctors plan the best treatment
PURPOSE This clinical trial is studying how well a whole-person-care guide works in identifying patient needs in patients with cancer or complications from cancer treatment

Detailed Description:
OBJECTIVES
To determine what patient needs are detected from NEST13 interviews of cancer patients and their caregivers
To determine the concordance among patient caregiver and team goals
To determine palliative care services provided
OUTLINE Participants are assigned sequentially to 1 of 2 intervention groups
Group 1 NEST13 Patients and caregivers undergo NEST13 interviews at the time of admission to Northwestern Memorial Hospital caregivers answer the NEST13 interviews from the patients perspective A NEST13 care plan is then derived from both patient and caregiver responses Research MD or RN presents patients NEST13 findings and recommended interventions for integration with actual care On the day of discharge patients and caregivers undergo a second NEST13 interview
Group 2 control Patients and caregivers undergo a sham interview at the time of admission to Northwestern Memorial Hospital On the day of discharge patients and caregivers undergo a NEST13 interview as in group 1
Medical charts for all patients are reviewed by a member of the research staff to document needs assessments in domains covered by NEST and to document palliative care-related decisions Abstracted chart review by blinded experts is also performed to evaluate palliative care quality based on National Comprehensive Cancer Network guidelines
PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 500 patients and 250 caregivers will be accrued for this study
