  schema:description "If you are 65 or over and about to start chemotherapy, targeted therapy or immunotherapy, your team should check more than the cancer: how well you move and manage day to day, memory, mood, other illnesses, medicines, nutrition and who supports you. The results help choose a treatment you can tolerate and find problems that can be fixed, such as falls, poor nutrition or too many tablets."@en ;
