Brief summary
The main objective of this study is to describe the evolution in quality of life (QLQ-C30) for patients receiving breast cancer care at 3, 6 and 12 months after a "remission" consultation.
Detailed description
The secondary objectives of this study are: A. to describe changes in body image (Image Body Scale Version F) at 3, 6 and 12 months after a "remission" consultation. B. to describe changes in psychological distress (visual analog scale) at 3, 6 and 12 months after a "remission" consultation. C. to assess the time of resumption of work (date of last chemotherapy - date of the actual resumption of work) after a "remission" consultation. D. to evaluate the acceptance rate for the "remission" consultation. E. to describe the modes of the observed management, their distribution and the characteristics of the patients according to different monitoring arrangements.
Interventions
At the end of adjuvant treatment (adjuvant chemotherapy and / or radiotherapy), the patient is seen by a referent oncologist and included in the study. A "Remission" consultation with a psychotherapist is then proposed and its purpose explained to the patient. The patient agrees or refuses take advantage of the "Remission" consultation; in case of refusal, the reasons are documented and further information is provided, thus giving the opportunity for the patient to benefit from further psychological counseling if desired. If approval is given, the patient will be scheduled for the "Remission" consultation (duration 1 hour) . The latter includes a first phase evaluating the mental state of the patient, and then a proposal of individualized care if necessary and according to several methods, depending on the choice of the patient.
