Topic: Survey request from LBBC Posted: Dec 06 2013 at 1:28pm |
Our friends at Living Beyond Breast Cancer are conducting a national survey to assess the unique information and support needs of all women with breast cancer. Available
online until midnight PT on Friday, Jan.10, the survey asks about the
information and support available to women with breast cancer. The
organization will use the survey findings to identify and address gaps
in services for people with specific breast cancer diagnoses, such as
triple-negative, hormone-positive or HER2 positive. Who May Participate? All women who have ever been diagnosed with or treated for breast cancer may take part in this survey.
Participants may be recently diagnosed, in treatment, post-treatment,
have had a return of breast cancer, or be living with metastatic (stage
IV) disease. We seek people with a diversity of experiences, so please
spread the word about this opportunity. All responses are anonymous. Every
participant who completes the survey, which takes about 30 minutes,
will receive a coupon for a free LipDrink SPF 15 lip balm with any $50
purchase from jane iredale. Participants may also enter a drawing for a chance at one of four $150 amazon.com gift cards. How Will LBBC Use the Survey Findings? Survey
responses will help shape future Living Beyond Breast Cancer materials,
and they will help us develop programs for unique groups of women
affected by breast cancer. We will share what we learn with healthcare
providers and other organizations. A summary of the findings will be
published in 2014 on lbbc.org. How Do I Participate? You may start now by completing the survey online. If you have questions or concerns, please call LBBC at (610) 645-4567. Survey link below: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/BCNeeds2013

I'm disappointed in the survey. It's poorly worded, and seems to have an agenda of its own rather than to delve into the experiences of women with cancer and what their subsequent needs are. Sorry, but after completing it I just shook my head.

Thank you from Living Beyond Breast Cancer: Thank You for Filling Out Our National Breast Cancer Survey!
LBBC
would like to thank everyone who participated in our national survey to
assess the current and emerging needs of those affected by breast
cancer. We owe a great many thanks to all who responded to the survey,
as well as the many LBBC allies — most notably the Triple Negative Breast Cancer Foundation and organizations associated with the Metastatic Breast Cancer Alliance — for helping us promote participation.
More
than 2,000 of you completed the survey since it opened in December. The
information you provided will help us identify and address gaps for
people with specific subtypes of breast cancer, such as triple-negative
disease, which is one of the first groups we will address.
We
have a lot of data to analyze, and we promise we will post our findings
throughout the next year. We hope to announce our first findings in the
upcoming months. Follow us on Facebook and Twitter, and check lbbc.org for updates on the survey results!
