Summary

Detailed description

The investigators are conducting a study with patients from Dana Farber Cancer Institute (DFCI) and DFCI-affiliate at St. Elizabeth's Hospital who are being treated for their cancer. The purpose of the study is to test the implementation of a short video, a brief questionnaire, and a wallet card designed to help patients understand and articulate their goals and preferences when making decisions about their cancer treatment and communicate these preferences to their clinicians. The short video and brief questionnaire were developed to help patients with cancer think about their goals of care and their treatment and information preferences and to prompt discussions with their health care team about these preferences. The wallet card is designed to help patients remember some key questions that may be useful as they make decisions about future treatments A pilot test will be completed to assess the feasibility and usability of the revised "More Good Days" video, brief questionnaire and wallet card in helping seriously-ill cancer patients think about what a good day means to them and test whether these tools can help patients to identify and communicate their medical treatment preferences and goals with their care team.
