Abstrakt: Objective: The outcomes of a Strength, Weakness, Opportunities and Threat (SWOT) analysis of three Integrated Oncological Departments were compared with their present situation three years later to define factors that can influence a successful implementation and development of an Integrated Oncological Department in- and outside (i.e. home care) the hospital.
Research Design: Comparative Qualitative Case Study.
Methods: Auditing based on care-as-usual norms by an external, experienced auditing committee.
Research Setting: Integrated Oncological Departments of three hospitals.
Results: Successful multidisciplinary care in an integrated, oncological department needs broad support inside the hospital and a well-defined organisational plan.
