תקציר	The Caregiver Quality of Life Index–Cancer (CQOLC) is a 35-item self-report measure specifically designed to assess the quality of life and burden experienced by family members caring for cancer patients. Developed by Weitzner and colleagues in 1999, the CQOLC captures the multifaceted impact of caregiving—physical strain, emotional toll, disruption of daily activities, financial hardship, and positive adaptation—making it essential for identifying caregiver distress and tailoring support interventions.	The Support Team Assessment Schedule (STAS) is a clinician-rated observational instrument assessing the impact of palliative care support on patients with advanced illness and their families across seven key domains: pain, symptoms, anxiety, family well-being, communication, and support adequacy. Developed by Baker, Speck, and Cohen in 1997, the STAS has become a standard quality-of-life outcome measure in community palliative care, hospice, and research, enabling teams to systematically monitor the effectiveness of their interventions and identify patients and families in crisis.
