Abstract

El-Kass et al (2021) stated Cancer is the leading cause of death in economically developed countries and is a threat to human lives. Cancer and chemotherapy side effects may affect the daily activity of cancer patients and their families on many levels confronted by changes in health status and lifestyles, leading to impaired self-care efficacy. Bai Chay Hospital in Quang Ninh province has been a pioneer in applying tech ology in medical services. Hospitals increase IT application, move towards paperless hospitals, and at the same time improve operating capacity and modernize. Our study shows that Home care service for cancer patients who want palliative care after cancer treatment or terminal cancer patients has been developed in big cities in Vietnam in order to solve one important thing is the psychological problem, when treating at home and reducing waiting time for cancer patients at hospitals.
