An oncology social work case management model of intervention is described quantitatively and qualitatively. Sixty-nine newly diagnosed breast cancer patients followed by telephone for one year required 374 hours of the social worker's time in providing reassurance, information, and referral to existing community resources. This process took less than one-half hour per patient per month. Case examples provide insight into the clinical aspects of the social worker's efforts. This telephone-based model was found to be highly effective and cost-efficient in addressing the rehabilitation needs of cancer patients. It also is a generic model that can be used with cancer patients with any disease site or phase of illness.
本文从定量和定性两个方面描述了一种肿瘤社会工作案例管理干预模式。69名新确诊的乳腺癌患者接受了为期一年的电话随访，社会工作者在提供安慰、信息以及转介现有社区资源方面花费了374小时。这个过程每位患者每月耗时不到半小时。案例展示了社会工作者工作的临床方面。事实证明，这种基于电话的模式在满足癌症患者康复需求方面非常有效且具有成本效益。它也是一种通用模式，可用于任何疾病部位或疾病阶段的癌症患者。
