摘要
Unprecedented levels of disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic seem to have resulted in greater stress, anxiety and distress among cancer survivors. Written by a social work practitioner in the city-state of Singapore, this reflective essay hopes to lend insights on how social work practitioners could help cancer survivors better manage the impact of the double crisis of experiencing cancer in the midst of a pandemic.
