Abstract
Implementation of a tailored survivorship care plan (SCP) based on individual disease- and treatment-related factors, personal preferences, and available resources, setting expectations, and continuing to communicate openly with the MM patients and their caregivers promotes health-self-management, reduces symptom burden, and improves QOL. Innovative strategies for survivorship care that promote communicative health literacy, engage the patient and their caregivers in health self-management, involve the survivor in developing the SCP, and clearly designate the roles of HCPs are needed.
