and practice of providing care to cancer patients. Today’s

health care environment demands constant improvement

in patient outcomes. As part of the multidisciplinary team,

essential need for resources that facilitate easy access to the

best evidence for managing common cancer symptoms. The

the evidence base for oncology nursing and demonstrating

the impact of oncology nursing interventions on patient

outcomes.

main challenges nurses face is collaborating with the many

different organisations in the field of oncology. In addition

to the difficulty of monitoring and educating patients who

receive treatment in the out-patient setting. when informing

related to oncological treatment information regarding

health staff, health system, and infrastructure; to invest or

not - dilemmas related to finitude - showing situations of

dilemmas related to pain and confrontation with finitude. It

is important to invest in the training of these professionals,

preparing them in an ethical and human way to act as

lawyers of the patient with cancer, in a context of dilemmas

related mainly to the possibility of finitude. Part of their role

is to listen to the emotional concerns and anxieties of the

patient and refer them appropriately if needed.
