Show detailsCancer management is an interdisciplinary endeavor, thus an understanding of the principles of oncology nursing is fundamental to the effective practice of all other oncology subspecialties. Oncology nurses are engaged in collaborative practice with all members of the healthcare team to provide optimal management of patients with cancer. Their professional practice requires detailed knowledge of the biologic and psychosocial dimensions of cancer as a disease, and its impact upon the lives of patients and their loved ones. Oncology nurses have key roles as caregivers, as well as providers of patient and family education, in clinical cancer research, in health care administration, and as advanced oncology nurse practitioners. Cancer nurses also are continuously involved in the enhancement of nursing practice through research, continuing education, and advanced education.
