Prostate cancer (PCa) survivors in Canada receive follow-up care after treatment through a specialist-led model, which is currently straining to meet patient needs. We interviewed healthcare providers (HCPs) and patients to investigate the design and development of a healthcare service that uses technology, also known as virtual care, to provide nurse-led follow-up care. Mixed experiences with virtual care informed participant feedback and concerns, including impacts of the pandemic and digital literacy considerations. We show that HCPs and patients see potential benefit in virtual nurse-led follow-up care if it can increase access to resources, clarify patient and provider care roles, and improve access and continuity of care. This type of approach to follow-up care may help to improve survivor quality of life and PCa follow-up care while extending the reach of healthcare systems with limited resources.
