Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Quality of life (QOL) of nursing homes residents with cancer in France is not known. High prevalence of neurodegenerative diseases makes it difficult. It was found that oncological management is suboptimal among Poitevin territory residents. Publications report an inadequate management of symptoms of discomfort related to cancers.

The multicentric study will comparate quality of life in patients with and without Cancers in nursing homes, including residents with neurodegenerative disease, using validated questionnaires. These questionnaires, as well as pain evaluation, will be carried out by a geriatric consultations' nurse.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Investigators will also make a descriptive inventory of the oncological care and support care in these patients, in order to evaluate the need for a specific oncogeriatric intervention.

Quality of life and pain will be compared with a randomized residents control group, in each hospital.
