Abstract

Treatment and nursing of cancer patients place great demands on physicians, nurses and the patients' families. The enormous emotional strain on the patient may lead to frustration and 'burnout' among health-care professionals. This article consists of three steps: (a) a qualitative analysis based on a discussion with experts in oncology; (b) a questionnaire investigation of physicians and nurses; and (c) training courses for interested physicians and nurses. The majority of physicians and nurses pointed out that: the value of psychological support is generally underestimated, therapeutic complaints are often due to the patients' lack of information and administrative problems negatively influenced their relationship with patients.
