Introduction Despite expanding interest in cancer survivorship, little is known about urban Asian breast cancer survivors whose experience may differ from those in suburban and rural locations. This study explores survivors’ challenges to maximize outcomes and identify common and unique themes among urban Asian survivors. Information was obtained from the survivors and outreach workers from their community. Methodology Descriptive qualitative methods including semistructured interview guides were used to plan, conduct, and analyze both individual interviews of Asian women ( n = 6) and a focus group ( n = 7) composed of community outreach workers. Results The interview and focus group findings, endorsed themes of communication/language, trust, and privacy, with generational differences. Poor health literacy in both survivors and providers was identified. Discussion Nurses are in a unique position to use the themes identified to both assist survivors expand their health literacy and lobby for resources for providers to promote culturally congruent care.
