00:00This platform, in good health, is born in response to an important need of our patients,
00:11which is the possibility of accessing a support of psycho-oncology.
00:16Unfortunately, the figure of the psycho-oncologist, although it is foreseen as a necessary figure within the breast units,
00:23is not always present, so some patients cannot have access to this fundamental support
00:29for the quality of the treatments.
00:32So, this platform, in good health, can overcome this current shortage in many sinology centres,
00:40thus giving the possibility to the patients to have access to a support
00:45which is also important for the adherence to the treatments.
00:50We know that the psychological distress, unfortunately, is very frequent after the tumor diagnosis
00:55and the presence of some alterations, such as depression,
00:59can also determine a reduction of adherence to the treatments or even the refusal of some therapies.
01:06So, an important support also to guarantee the quality of the results.
