Invite to take part in a survey as part of the SWITCH study

We are inviting healthcare professionals to take part in a short survey as part of the SWITCH study, a research project funded by the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR). As part of this project, we are looking to explore healthcare professionals’ experiences and opinions on oral SACT medication brand changes.

We are very keen to gather more insights from pharmacists and pharmacy technicians involved in cancer care to better understand how these brand changes impact clinical practice and patient care.

The survey takes around 10 minutes to complete and can be accessed via the link below:

SWITCH study – HCP survey and focus groups

Further information about the study is available at the survey link, including the option for participants to express interest in an additional focus group. Focus group participants will receive a £25 voucher as a thank you for their time.

Your contribution is greatly valued and will help inform future strategies to improve the delivery of cancer services.

If you have any queries about the study or would like more information, then please email us at [email protected].
