The optimal cancer care pathways (OCPs) describe best practice cancer care. They are designed to promote a full understanding of the patient experience and to foster evidenced based, quality cancer care from the point of diagnosis onwards.
The resources identify specific steps, or critical points along the care pathway and the recommended care at each point.
Both detailed and quick reference guides, as well as what to expect guides, have been developed for the following tumour types.
