Navigation

The authors present the results of an analysis of the evidence for patient navigation effectiveness to improve cancer screening rates.

A beautiful case study exemplifying the power of navigation when executed in collaboration with the patient, caregivers, and care team.

The authors present findings from their review of the literature assessing patient navigation efficacy for cancer patients undergoing treatment.

Dr Burhansstipanov emphasized the importance of coordination between NPNs and nurse navigators. “Our navigators have worked beautifully with nurse navigators,” she said at the Academy of Oncology Nurse & Patient Navigators 7th Annual Navigation & Survivorship Conference.

The authors present their findings from a patient satisfaction study conducted 1 year after the establishment of an oncology nurse navigation program to collect patient feedback and discover opportunities for improvements.

We are greatly looking forward to the Seventh Annual Conference of the Academy of Oncology Nurse & Patient Navigators (AONN+) in Las Vegas.

The objective of this project is to present a nationwide picture of the ACS navigation program, using newly standardized reporting.

The CNA will allow the LSCVAMC to identify barriers to cancer care and potential areas for improvement to ensure continuous quality improvement and access for our veterans with cancer.

Cancer survivorship is rapidly evolving, with new cancer survivorship care guidelines issued very recently. Stay up-to-date on new information to ensure that practice keeps pace with new guidelines for care.

The Commission on Cancer (CoC) is a consortium of professional organizations dedicated to improving survival and quality of life for cancer patients through standard setting, prevention, research, education, and the monitoring of comprehensive quality care. The AONN+ is a CoC member organization.
