How Can Cancer Nurses Advocate for Their Patients?
Advocacy is a fundamental aspect of cancer nursing. Nurses advocate for their patients by ensuring they have access to the necessary resources, participating in policy-making, and promoting patient rights. They work to eliminate barriers to care, such as financial difficulties or lack of transportation, and strive to create a healthcare environment that prioritizes patient-centered care. Through advocacy, cancer nurses help improve the overall healthcare system for all patients.
