This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing a new approach called the SNAP Tool, which helps head and neck cancer survivors and their caregivers plan for life after cancer treatment. The tool includes two planning visits (one focused on the caregiver, one with both survivor and caregiver together), personalized care plans tailored to your specific concerns, and a mobile app that sends helpful check-ins for 6 weeks. The goal is to make sure survivors and caregivers get the right support and resources when they need them most.
Many cancer survivors and caregivers feel lost after treatment ends and don't know where to turn for help with physical recovery, emotional adjustment, or practical needs. This trial tests whether a structured planning tool with coordinated referrals and regular app-based support can better connect survivors and caregivers to the resources they actually need.

If you join the SNAP group, you will have two planning visits over 3 months: one visit near the end of your radiation treatment focused on your caregiver's needs, and a second visit 3 months later with both you and your caregiver together. At each visit, a nurse or physician assistant will assess your concerns, create a personalized care plan, and set you up with referrals to helpful resources. You will also download a mobile app and receive two supportive text messages per week for 6 weeks after each visit. If you are in the comparison group, you will receive standard follow-up care and printed educational materials.
