Living with sarcoma in Switzerland or supporting someone? Participate in a study

Hello everyone

I am a Master’s student in Nursing Science at ZHAW (Zurich University of Applied Sciences) and I am conducting a study as part of my Master’s thesis.

I am investigating the unmet supportive care needs of adults living with sarcoma as well as their relatives/caregivers in Switzerland. The aim is to better understand where support may be lacking in daily life, during treatment, or afterwards, in order to improve future services.

Who can participate:
• Adults living in Switzerland with a sarcoma diagnosis
• Relatives or close persons supporting someone affected

Participation takes place via an anonymous online questionnaire and takes approximately 5–10 minutes.

DE: Unterstützungsbedürfnisse von Menschen mit Sarkom und ihren Angehörigen in der Schweiz
FR: Besoins de soutien non satisfaits chez les personnes atteintes de sarcome et de leurs proches en Suisse
IT: Bisogni assistenziali insoddisfatti delle persone affette da sarcoma e dei loro caregiver in Svizzera
EN: Unmet supportive care needs of Swiss people with sarcoma and their caregiver

Your experience is very valuable — especially with rare diseases like sarcoma, every single participation helps improve care in the long term.

If you have any questions, feel free to contact me at any time.
Thank you very much :yellow_heart:
