ABSTRACT
The management of a patient with cancer, including lung cancer requires the investment of many health caregivers. The development of surgical techniques as well as targeted therapies requires a specialization of each. In order to optimize the actions of each, coordination of support is required from the diagnosis of cancer. This coordination can reduce iatrogenic toxicity and improve quality of life during the disease. It may also enhance quality of accompaniment of the patient, his family and a fortiori the health care team. The development of this coordination of supportive care in oncology, as part of a department of cancerology including care of patients with lung cancer is described. This organization allows to limit the toxicities of cancer treatment, but also to improve the suffering of patients by focusing on maintaining the patient at home.
