Brief summary (registry, in English)

In this study protocol, the investigators described a survivorship intervention program that will be performed at a referral hospital in Western Kenya. This will be a non-randomized prospective cohort study with a sequential hybrid effectiveness - implementation design. The study comprises of an educational component for caregivers of childhood cancer survivors and a follow-up component targeting healthcare providers with survivorship training and implementation of a late effects documentation tool. Through these interventions the investigators aim to: 1. increase follow-up adherence of childhood cancer survivors; 2. increase caregivers' and healthcare providers' knowledge about childhood cancer diagnoses, treatment and the corresponding late effects risks; 3. document late effects at a childhood cancer outpatient clinic; 4. evaluate program implementation and satisfaction among recipients and providers.
