UKONS 2016 | The importance of specialist nurses in the Radium-223 service for prostate cancer patients

Lisa White, Advanced Prostate Cancer CNS at Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, UK, discusses the importance of specialist nurses in the Radium-223 service for patients with prostate cancer. They see patients, assess them, manage their symptoms and the side effects of treatment. Providing patient-centred care, collaborating with other members of the MDT, specialist nurses make the patient’s journey the best it can be. Recorded at the 2016 Annual Meeting of the Oncology Nursing Society (ONS), held in Brighton, UK.
