NCCN 2011 Nursing Program Webinars
Program Overview

The NCCN 2011 Nursing Program Webinars are designed to provide oncology nurses with current and relevant information related to the management of patients with cancer. The effects of cancer-related therapy can have an impact on morbidity and mortality, and the quality of life of patients with cancer. This program consists of several presentations focused on key components for a successful survivorship care program, nursing considerations for patients with pancreatic cancer, the multidisciplinary care approach to prostate cancer, and strategies to identify and manage the complexities of symptom management and supportive care issues in cancer care.

Intended Audience

These webinars are designed to meet the educational needs of nurses who manage patients with cancer. These educational initiatives are designed to provide CE opportunities to nursing professionals who were unable to attend the NCCN 2011 Nursing Program at the NCCN 16th Annual Conference.
