Summary
The purpose of this research study is to obtain insights and feedback from patients and parents about a new approach to support conversations about how cancer may affect one's future life and quality of life (i.e., prognostic communication). This study involves creating a personalized approach to discussing prognosis. Primary Objectives * To evaluate the feasibility of implementing the RIGHTimeCPV intervention among pediatric oncology patients, caregivers, and clinicians (referred to herein as "shareholders"). * To assess the acceptability of the intervention across the shareholder groups. Secondary Objectives * To explore the potential impact of the RIGHTimeCPV intervention on communication quality, concordance in prognostic understanding, and therapeutic alliance between patients/families and multidisciplinary clinicians. * To explore whether the practice of eliciting, sharing, and honoring individualized communication preferences is sustained by clinicians after participation in the RIGHTimeCPV intervention.
