CANCER, TUMOUR
Eligible services were those that provide cancer care to at least 100 patients per year in New South Wales (NSW), Australia, and operate in a public and/or private healthcare system. Participating sites could be whole services or selected departments within those services (e.g., tumour streams or treatment modalities). Services were excluded if they were unable to commit to the study process (e.g., endorsing and enabling staff to participate in training for the ADAPT CP, engaging in a 3-month tailoring period prior to implementation), or did not have Wi-Fi/broadband/internet to support the use of a web-based portal that had been created to support implementation (ADAPT Portal).Study participants were staff at the 12 cancer services who were employed on an ongoing (≥ 6 months) basis. Staff in roles that provide clinical, administrative, or technical/managerial support to the cancer service were identified through an organisational chart mapping exercise during site engagement and were invited to participate in this study and give informed consent. Participants included staff who would or would not be directly involved in the application of the ADAPT CP, to gauge a range of perceptions from a broader organisational perspective.
