Despite growing recognition of adolescents and young adults (AYAs) as a distinct oncological population with unique psychosocial needs, empirical evidence on how physical environments in community cancer care settings shape their wellbeing remains limited, particularly in Asian contexts. This study explores how the design and physical environment of a community AYA cancer care center in Singapore influences the psychosocial experiences of Malay-Muslim AYAs with cancer, addressing a critical evidence gap in culturally situated psycho-oncology.

Caregivers of paediatric cancer survivors often receive limited support and intervention to cope with the fear of cancer recurrence (FCR) in their children compared to those undergoing treatment. The study aims to investigate if caregivers continue to experience FCR even after their children have achieved remission.

Mastectomy has a negative impact on women’s feelings of femininity and self-confidence. Previous research shows that external breast prostheses (EBP) can enhance body image. However, the knowledge of EBP of breast cancer survivors is scarce in Singapore. This study aimed to investigate their knowledge of EBP in relation to their body image and social appearance anxiety.
