| Abstract
|
:
|
"Becoming a Breast Cancer Nurse Navigator offers nurses an invaluable resource and guide to nurse "navigation," a burgeoning field in oncology aimed at coordinating care - a service more and more patients are asking breast centers to provide." "Author Lillie D. Shockney - pioneering nurse navigator and two-time cancer survivor - explains all aspects of the role, including how to implement a program, how to become a successful navigator, and why the nation's leading breast centers are recruiting navigators to their team. As Administrative Director of the Johns Hopkins Avon Foundation Breast Center, Shockney is in the unique position of offering a groundbreaking text that interweaves expertise on the field's best practices with no-nonsense, practical advice for individual nurses." "Becoming a Breast Cancer Nurse Navigator teaches readers how to define the phases of diagnosis and treatment and manage patients' progression through the course of care. It also serves as a practical guide to nurses seeking administrative buy-in to their navigation initiatives, providing critical instruction on measuring performance and identifying value in convincing, quantitative terms." "Becoming a Breast Cancer Nurse Navigator is essential reading for experienced navigators seeking ways to measure their performance, for new navigators searching for best practices to improve their care, and for all other oncology specialists ready to take their first steps toward this exciting new field."--Jacket.
