Cancer survivorship and identity: what about the role of oncology social workers?
Social Work in Health Care 2018 November
With cancer survival rates rapidly increasing over time, more people are living into the survivorship stage of their cancer experience. Furthermore, the experience of cancer may impact individuals long after treatment has ceased. This paper presents the results of a mapping review implemented to explore key themes in the literature related to issues with identity following the completion of cancer treatment. The review included 22 studies including quantitative, qualitative, mixed method, and review studies as well as conceptual papers. Findings revealed key descriptions post-cancer treatment identities, literature focused on dominant discourses and counter-discourses around cancer survivorship, and key themes focused on identity management and the roles of Oncology Social Workers in supporting identity issues in postcancer treatment. This review presents a 'map' of current research on identity and cancer survivorship, helping to identify major gaps in the literature, direct future research, and inform practice.
