Abstract

This study explores how cancer patients are most affected by four different types of fatigue. I discuss the methodology of how the surveys were administered, and also my experiences dealing with LivingWell Cancer Resource Center. I also mention the multiple groups that are present at LivingWell, and how these groups can positively or negatively effect fatigue restoration. I discuss the major impacts of fatigue and the recorded fatigue levels of members both before, and after they attend a course. It then goes into detail on how cancer resource center can provide fatigue restoration by the physical design of the building. It explains how sensing a restorative servicescape results in partial mediation, and a strong predictor of fatigue level alleviation in cancer patients.
