    Frequently asked questions

    What is best practice?

    Best practice refers to clear examples of how optimal treatment and care has been successfully implemented in practice to improve the service delivery and outcomes and experiences for people with pancreatic cancer.

    Who can submit a case study?

    Health professionals, healthcare teams, NHS trusts or cancer alliances can submit case studies, as long as you can explain the improvement you’ve implemented, how it works in practice and the difference it has made.

    My service doesn't show improved survival, can I still share my case study?

    Of course! Our mission is to improve survival rates however, we know that pancreatic cancer is the 5th biggest killer in the UK so we would like to highlight the importance of improving better treatment and care for people with pancreatic cancer.

    Do I have to complete all the questions?

    No but please try to complete as much as the form as possible. We may be in touch if we have additional questions about your service improvement.

    Who can I contact about my case study?

    If you have any additional questions about submitting a best practice case study, please get in touch with eleanor.curran@pancreaticcancer.org.uk.

    Where will Pancreatic Cancer UK share my case study?

    We will share your case study on our website of best practice case studies to demonstrate to other healthcare teams how improvements can be implemented. We may also share via our newsletters and social media, but will always ask for permission to do so first.
