Key findings used in wiki

• The guide describes caregivers as part of the cancer care team, not only as emotional support.
• It shows that cancer caregivers often manage medicines, side effects, appointments, coordination across doctors, insurance issues, legal issues, transportation, and home tasks.
• It specifically advises caregivers to ask questions and take notes during doctor visits, which supports the wiki's notebook-and-coordination framing.
• It also highlights infection-prevention responsibilities and the need to understand when to contact the cancer team about new symptoms or side effects.
• The page is useful because it makes the day-to-day operational work of cancer caregiving concrete in public-facing language.
