What this paper is
This paper describes the development of a social-healthcare pathway (UNAMANO) to help cancer survivors return to work in Italy. It details the creation of the network, the roles of occupational therapists, and the planned interventions. However, it reports no patient outcomes, no effectiveness data, and no results from the feasibility testing, which is currently ongoing. There are no findings here to change clinical practice.
