The trajectory of cancer caregivers, developed in collaboration with researcher Sylvie Lambert and her team, as well as the Organisme de soutien aux proches aidants en oncologie du Québec (OSPAOQ), is now available online.

Presented as an interactive infographic, it provides a clear and visual overview of the caregiving journey in oncology, highlighting key moments, transitions, and challenges caregivers may experience. It also outlines the contextual and sociodemographic factors that may come into play.

This infographic serves as a valuable tool to support caregivers as their trajectory evolves, shifts, or is redefined. A detailed report on the trajectory will be published in the spring of 2026.
