In recognition of Nurses Appreciation Week,
Stand Up To Cancer (SU2C) announces the development of a series of
Certification for Nursing Education (CNE) training modules by experts
from Boston College William F. Connell
School of Nursing. The CNE modules will equip nurses with the skills and
knowledge needed to manage the unique challenges and patient symptoms
that accompany administration of emerging immunotherapies to treat
cancer. The first of a series of the three web-based SU2C-Boston College Immunotherapy CNE modules will be available to nurses in July 2016.
"Nurses are essential
collaborators in translational cancer research, bringing new and
effective treatments from the research laboratory to the patient,"
stated SU2C President and CEO, Sung Poblete, RN, PhD who holds a PhD in Nursing from Rutgers University.
"SU2C is at the forefront of immunoncology research and we recognize
that an essential part of bringing these cutting-edge therapies to
patients is the effective dissemination of information about the
treatments. Nurses play an integral role in patient management and these
modules will provide a new toolkit for patient care."
