Abstract
The ongoing physical, emotional, and social challenges faced by head and neck cancer (HNC) survivors and their caregivers, particularly after completing treatment is of interest. It should be noted that traditional medical care often overlooks this issue. This study evaluated the effectiveness of nurse-led survivorship care for patients with head and neck cancer (HNC) in managing pain, fatigue and supporting caregivers. A 21-day intervention program, comprising exercises, therapy and educational sessions, significantly reduce pain and fatigue in the experimental group (p < 0.05). Caregiver interviews revealed emotional stress, lack of preparedness and a need for structured support. The intervention helped caregivers cope better by providing guidance and support. Incorporating nurse-led survivorship care into routine practice can significantly improve patient recovery and overall survivorship outcomes.
