dc.description.abstract | The provision of psychosocial services has a substantial impact on cancer care by reducing emotional distress and improving both the quality of life and survival of patients, but the availability and utilization of such services have not been well studied in developing countries, particularly, Ethiopia. Therefore, we explored the types of psychosocial services available for breast cancer patients in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. A mixed method study was conducted using a cross-sectional survey involving 428 breast cancer patients, followed by a qualitative study. A total of nine in-depth interviews (IDIs) were conducted with four breast cancer patients and five key informants using two separate interview guides. In addition to descriptive statistics, logistic regression was performed to identify factors associated with the provision of psychosocial services. Thematic analysis was used for the qualitative data, using NVivo 12 plus software. Only 47 (11.1%) patients received psychosocial services in the form of counselling, emotional support, or information provision. Health professionals reportedly provided such services along with their routine activities, and patients predominantly received social/emotional support from family members, friends, and colleagues. There were no well-structured counselling services, emotional support, or group discussion sessions for breast cancer patients in these health facilities. The main reasons for not providing these services were high patient flow/workload, inadequate space, lack of training, and not having qualified professionals to organise and deliver psychosocial services in these hospitals. Only one in ten breast cancer patients received psychosocial services from health professionals, and the services were not delivered in a structured way. Therefore, psychosocial services should be integrated in both private and government health facilities in Ethiopia. | eng |
