Oncology Nurse
Published: June 18, 2009
Oncology Nurses are important members of the interdisciplinary team.
You can access nursing care during any visit to the centre. All you need to do is request to see a nurse. Nurses work in Patient Support Cinics within the centre as well as in telephone care, chemotherapy and the radiation therapy areas. They are specially trained to provide care and support to cancer patients.
Nurses provide patients not only with support but also education regarding treatment and the management of side effects related to treatment. You can also ask them to explain technical terms or to put you in touch with other professionals at the cancer centre.
