About this study

Official title: Addressing Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) Among Metro Detroit Cancer Survivors: A Pilot Feasibility Study (The Resource Ready Study)

The goal of this screening study is to determine the feasibility of completing a social needs screening tool in participants who have a past or current cancer diagnosis and reside in Metro Detroit, Michigan. Main questions to answer are:

  • Can we have a completion rate of at least 80% of participants filling out the screening tool?
  • Can we determine procedures for patient referrals based on social needs
  • Can we implement brief interventions based on food access and digital inclusion (ensuring everyone has access to the digital technologies they need to participate in society)
Read the detailed description

In part 1 of the study, Participants will be administered a social screening tool either in person or via telephone. Responses to the screening tool will be translated into diagnosis codes which identify non-medical factors that may influence a patient's health status. In part 2 of the study, participants will be referred to community-based resources based on their responses to the social needs screening tool. Follow up will be made via telephone call at 2, 4, 6 and 8 weeks.
