Individuals living with and beyond cancer face physical impairment and inactivity in survivorship. Neuro-oncology populations have especially high rates of sedentary behaviour and functional deficits, including impaired balance, motor skills, and cognition. Our purpose was to assess the rehabilitation and exercise needs of patients with brain tumours while examining the feasibility of a rehabilitation triage clinic as a part of the Alberta Cancer Exercise–Neuro-Oncology study, where patients were referred to a triage clinic, where health, neurologic, and functional status was assessed, followed by a referral to one or multiple resources, including exercise, physiotherapy, occupational therapy, or physiatry. Qualitative perception of the triage clinic was collected. Overall, the triage clinic was feasible and safe for participants, facilitating referral into rehabilitation and exercise resources. Pre-determined enrollment and attendance rates were met, but referral rates to the triage clinic were not met. Oncology clinic staff reported forgetting to refer patients or uncertainty of who was appropriate for rehabilitation as barriers. Oncology clinic-based screening may improve the identification of patients who are sedentary or have a physical impairment. A proposed screening tool, the Cancer Rehabilitation and Exercise Screening Tool (CREST), is presented within our Cancer Rehabilitation and Exercise Pathways Model. The CREST can identify patients who are sedentary or have a functional impairment, facilitating referral to appropriate rehabilitation resources and ultimately improving patient recovery and functioning.

Adolescents and Young adults (AYAs: 15–39 years) diagnosed with cancer face unique medical and psychosocial challenges requiring specialized care. This study conducted an environmental scan of AYA-specific programming and services currently offered across Canadian tertiary care centres. Key informants from pediatric and adult cancer centres in Canada reported on program logistics, AYA specialized staff and training opportunities, and collaboration between centres, funding, and specific areas of interest for AYA care such as palliative care, fertility, fatigue, and sexual health. Surveys were completed by 13/16 (81%) pediatric sites and 19/23 (83%) adult sites. Only about half of pediatric sites (n = 8/13) and adult sites (n = 9/19) who responded reported offering any AYA-specific cancer services or programming. One third of centres without programming reported to be working on developing programming. Only 6 sites reported to offer specialized AYA training. Several barriers were reported, such as the need for collaboration among institutions and improvement of oncofertility services. Significant disparities exist regarding geographic availability of services, the range of services available, and the populations served. Findings will guide researchers, health professionals, and provincial health authorities in the development of highquality and equitable services and programs for AYAs diagnosed with cancer across Canada.
