Perceptions of Hospital Care at Home for Patients With Cancer: A Qualitative Study of Cancer Providers, Patients and Caregivers.

Interviews and focus groups will be conducted in English only using an interview guide (attached). The interview guide was based on the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR)8 to provide a broad understanding of the potential barriers and enablers of implementing a hospital care at home program.
