Developing and Testing an Online Portal for Virtual Navigation for Asian American Patients With Cancer: Pilot Feasibility Study
This multilingual virtual patient navigation program for Asian American patients with cancer was deemed culturally appropriate and helpful in our pilot study. Emotional well-being improved among users of the portal. Some participants reported technical challenges, but most were satisfied with the program. Language-concordant virtual patient navigation and online supportive care tools can extend the reach and benefits of patient navigation.
