The present study aimed to review studies that have investigated CRC patients/survivors' needs. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In this narrative review, databases including PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Iranmedex, ISC, SID, and Magiran were searched during 2011-2021 using keywords included need, CRC, colon cancer, rectal cancer. RESULTS: The findings of the studies showed that the needs of the CRC patients/survivors' can be categorized into the 6 domains including informational, psychological, social, physical, financial, and spiritual needs. CONCLUSIONS: By identifying CRC patients/survivors' needs, healthcare providers particularly nurses can develop and design comprehensive care programs tailored to the needs and priorities of these patients/survivors to improve their QoL and health. © Shahad A.
