New special issue on current practices in oncology nursing

ecancermedicalscience has just published a new Special Issue which features articles aimed at promoting research and education in the cancer nursing field. Cancer prevention, diagnostic methods, treatments, side effects and their management as well as living life after cancer are all changing. It is necessary to have a nursing workforce that has the appropriate knowledge and skills in order to be able to provide such complex care.

Guest edited by Sarah Liptrott of the European Institute of Oncology and Elaine Lennan of University Hospital Southampton, the articles provide illustrations of exemplary practice, nurse led research and educational initiatives in order to inform clinical practice.
