Overview
Women and Cancer evolved from the Society of Gynecologic Nurse Oncologists' annual workshop. It was developed so that nurses in all settings (in the outpatient clinic or office, at the bedside, and in an advanced patient role) have a reference that addresses the specific needs of this unique patient population. Subjects covered in this book include screening, detection, and management of pre-invasive disease, and the nursing care issues identified with the disease, as well as nursing diagnosis and treatment modalities.
ShowKey Features
