Description
Morgan Leske and co-authors pilot an online healthy living program for cancer survivors in a 2026 study. The program, adapted from a phone-based course, was co-designed with survivors and clinicians and covered body and mind over twelve weeks. Eleven Australian survivors enrolled in the feasibility test.
Engagement lagged badly: nearly half never logged in, and users finished about a third of the nine modules. Those who stayed valued the mental health content. Tech hurdles, symptoms, and no human guide held others back. Readers get a caution that self-directed digital care needs human scaffolding.
