Sammanfattning

Caring is a commonly used word in health and nursing literature. Yet it is not clearly defined. In order to investigate the topic in the context of cancer, twelve cancersurvivors were interviewed. The findings show that good care in addition to medical treatment is essential to Quality of Life and potentials for regaining strength. Somebody who cares, good conversations and to achieve hope and strength are essential phenomena of good cancer care. Negative experiences are no follow - up, no time for crying or talking, not to take part in the knowledge and no empathy. The findings are discussed, and recommendations for practice are given.
