Abstract
Survival rates of most paediatric cancers are steadily improving as a result of improvements in diagnostics and treatment protocols. Long-term survival renders physical late effects and psychosocial adjustment problems ever more visible. The focus of this article is on school re-entry and social reintegration as core tasks of comprehensive rehabilitation efforts. So far only few systematic programmes exist in Germany to facilitate school re-entry and social integration of paediatric cancer survivors. The article outlines the prerequisites for such interventions and provides examples of re-entry programmes.
