Fitness assessment for older patients in breast clinic

The NABCOP recommends that patients aged 70 and over who are attending breast clinic for the first time have their fitness assessed to help guide the best course of treatment. We have developed a form which records three different aspects of patient health: The Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS), The Abbreviated Mental Test Score (AMTS), and three screening clinical questions on whether a patient has any major diseases e.g. dementia, cardio-respiratory disease, cancer.

The NABCOP guide to the breast cancer pathway for older women

We have worked with our patient and charity representatives to develop a two-sided guide, designed to encourage conversations between patients and their breast care team.
The guide is particularly relevant to women aged 70+ diagnosed with breast cancer, with question prompts for patients to discuss key elements of their care and treatment.

• • Improving data completeness – Information on how NHS organisations in both England and Wales can improve their data.
  • NABCOP CancerStats Area – Information on the NABCOP area of the CancerStats reporting portal [the repository for all feedback on those national datasets for England which are managed or supported by the National Cancer Registration and Analysis Service (NCRAS)].
  • Data case studies – Examples of different approaches used by NHS trusts in England to ensure their Cancer Outcomes and Services Dataset (COSD) submissions to NCRAS are as complete as possible.
