UKAO Society 5 Year Strategy
The UK Acute Oncology Society is a leading voice in support of the continued development and provision of Acute Oncology Services in the United Kingdom. Our members and officers are contributing to the national direction of Acute Oncology services in all 4 nations of the UK. We are also sharing information and guidance internationally with nations that are following our lead.
To support the delivery of our clear aims and objectives and plan our future work programmes UKAOS will publish a five-year plan (our strategy).
This is our first five year plan since the launch of UKAOS in 2022. It describes our ambition for a more seamless urgent cancer care pathway, addressing current issues to try and improve patient experience and recognising the key role of partnership working across all health care professionals in supporting safe, effective and high quality urgent care for cancer patients.
The UKAOS Board and Trustees have developed a draft strategy document and are encouraging our members and partners across the UK to review the draft startegy and comment and contribute prior to final approval.
It is important that our members are involved in the development and approval of our strategy.
