Care Continuum and Survivorship in Breast Cancer Nursing
Survivorship care is an essential part of breast cancer care. Nurses are pivotal to providing a continuum of patient care and require knowledge and skills to work within a multidisciplinary team caring for patients once their initial intense treatments have completed. This unit of study explores the breast care nurses’ role in the management of follow-up care, survivorship and the impact and care required if breast cancer reoccurs. It is designed to equip nurses with the knowledge about models of survivorship care, metastatic breast disease and addresses communication and psychological issues in the advanced stage of breast cancer care. The unit of study will identify and address breast cancer survivors’ immediate and future needs in terms of their follow-up care to improve their life holistically. The unit of study aims to prepare the breast care nurses to improve the survivorship rates and survivor care of culturally and linguistically diverse individuals.
