Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 190 females with breast cancer in Arak-Iran, who were selected by the convenience sampling method. Patients were evaluated by Socio-demographic and Disease Questionnaire, Perceived Illness Questionnaire, and Supportive Care Needs Survey Short Form.
