Based on the patient feedback you received, if you think a "My Radiotherapy Plan" spin off would be welcomed, I'd love to leverage existing web platforms, and collaborate with your team and mine (my team is pretty awesome, but you know this already ;)!

A quality standard to support patients and families during the transition from hospital to home. @PODS_OpenLab can be helpful in meeting these standards
