Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Women with breast cancer often experience anxiety and depression related to their diagnosis, treatment and prognosis. A collaborative project was set up by a breast care nurse and a liaison psychiatric nurse after they detected a gap in the services on offer to these women. Their initiative uses an established assessment tool to detect potential mental health problems and a patient pathway to ensure that the women's needs are monitored and met throughout their illness. |
