Nursing Patients With Cancer: Principles And Practice Hardcover

Nurses are at the forefront of the global effort to combat cancer. National strategies for cancer prevention and treatment emphasize the crucial role nurses play in every stage, from identifying and treating the disease to managing its effects. This book, drawing on the internationally recognized Core Curriculum for a Post-Registration Course in Cancer Nursing from the European Oncology Nursing Society (EONS), covers all the essential areas that nurses working with cancer patients need to know. With a strong focus on the patient's needs, it provides the fundamental scientific, psychological, and social information nurses require to deliver care that reduces the distress caused by cancer and improves results for both patients and their families.
