Patients completed a scale exploring their Supportive Care Needs, the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) and the EORTC QOL scale with its Myeloma module. The partners completed the partners' version of the Supportive Care Needs scale and HADS.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:italic>Results<\/jats:italic>: A total of 132 patients and 93 of their partners participated. One\u2010quarter of the patients and one\u2010third of the partners reported unmet supportive care needs. About 27.4% of patients reported signs of anxiety and 25.2% reported signs of depression. Almost half the partners (48.8%) reported signs of anxiety and 13.6% signs of depression. Anxious\/depressed patients had more than double unmet needs than non\u2010anxious\/depressed patients (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>&lt;0.05). QOL was moderate, with key areas of impairment being physical, emotional, social and cognitive functioning, and patients complained of several symptoms, including tiredness (40.7%), pain (35.9%), insomnia (32.3%), peripheral neuropathies (28.3%) and memory problems (22.3%). About 40.8% were worried about their health in the future.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:italic>Conclusion<\/jats:italic>: Long\u2010term supportive care services should provide support to both patients and their partners in relation to their unmet needs, screening them for psychological disorders, referring them appropriately and timely, and optimising symptom management in order to improve the patients' QOL.
