In 2018, the World Ovarian Cancer
Coalition launched the global version of this study to help highlight the
challenges facing women with ovarian cancer and identify opportunities to
make progress. This Canadian-specific study will dig deeper into the
Canadian health care context and learn how people with ovarian cancer in
this country experience access to care and treatment.
The online survey asks over 100 questions
and will take approximately 60 minutes to complete. Questions focus on
topics relating to an ovarian cancer diagnosis such as:
· Awareness about ovarian cancer and its
symptoms prior to diagnosis
·
Experience with the health care system
leading up to diagnosis
·
Financial and geographic access to needed
treatments
·
Access to and attitudes towards new
treatments and clinical trials
·
Ability to cope with emotional, practical
and financial challenges and insights regarding which support resources
were most helpful

Please share this with other women you
know who have been diagnosed with ovarian cancer.
If you have any questions, please contact
Cailey Crawford, Vice President, Programs and Policy, Ovarian Cancer
Canada, at [email protected].
In Hope,
Ovarian Cancer Canada

A big reminder to complete the survey if you haven't already. It really doesn't take that long and the information you provide is critical to highlighting the challenges facing women with ovarian cancer and identifying opportunities where progress can be made.
So if you haven't yet completed the survey I urge you to set aside some time and get it done....today would be super duper!

On behalf of all of our Teal Sisters....thank you!
For those who still haven't completed it, there is still time. The survey does close though on November 6 so the clock is ticking to get your voice heard.
