Interventions

BEHAVIORALCONVO intervention

The CONVO intervention consists of oncology nurse-led discussions exploring patients' health-related values as part of routine oncology care for all patients, from the beginning of oncologic care. Nurses will use the Nurse's Values Discussion Guide. At these sites, chemotherapy nurses will deliver the CONVO discussion, as patients at these sites do not have primary nurses assigned and because oncology doctors, BPs and PAs do not work one-on-one as a pair with a unique nurse.
