Principle 1 A multidisciplinary approach – Principle 2 Integrated, quality care that meets the needs of consumers – Principle 3 Access, equity and diversity – Principle 4 A skilled and supported workforce – Principle 5 Research and innovation – Principle 6 Data and information to support decision-making – Principle 7 An engaged and educated community – Principle 8 A planned, flexible and adaptable system – Principle 9 Accountable and responsible stewardship and use of resources – Tasmania’s Strategic Cancer Plan Vision To reduce the impact of cancer on Tasmanians at risk of or affected by cancer Mission To provide high quality cancer services across the continuum of care, from prevention through to treatment, survivorship and palliative care for all Tasmanians Objectives Improving cancer prevention Detecting cancers earlier Creating an integrated and sustainable system Providing a contemporary model of care Ensuring a well-governed system The Cancer Framework defines the desired elements of Tasmania’s system for cancer prevention and care. The analysis and consultation for this plan resulted in agreement on a vision, mission, objectives, strategies and actions to be completed over the three years of the plan to develop Tasmania’s cancer services so that they incorporate all of the framework elements and support service delivery in accordance with the framework principles. The plan is due for review in 2013 and this will inform development of the 2013-16 cancer plan.
