- label
- Aim 1: Focus Groups
- description
- Focus groups will be conducted in 2 New Hampshire and 2 Vermont towns to better understand patient knowledge, attitudes, and preferences regarding access to lung cancer screening.
- label
- Aim 2: Cross Sectional Survey
- description
- Based on focus group feedback, the investigators will visit each proposed site to survey on 2 separate dates to confirm days and times of high traffic. The investigators will also survey patrons at the proposed locations to further determine prospective patient mobile screening preferences and evaluate willingness to participate in screening.
- label
- Aim 3: Survey with follow up data
- description
- The investigators will pilot mobile lung cancer screening clinics at each chosen location using the knowledge acquired from focus group experience and local patient survey. Surveys will be conducted at these clinics, and patients will be followed for up to 5 years.
