How to Prioritize Roles and Responsibilities in the Lung Cancer Patient Journey

Presented by

AONN

Sponsored by

AstraZeneca

The Academy of Oncology Nurse & Patient Navigators (AONN+) is pleased to introduce an educational video in which expert nurse navigators and nurse practitioners discuss how they prioritize their many roles and responsibilities in the lung cancer patient journey.

This video is part 1 of a 5-part educational video series we’ve produced in partnership with AstraZeneca. Topics of discussion in this video include:

  • In your opinion, where are you most essential within the lung cancer patient journey?
  • How do you prioritize the many responsibilities that you have with your patients?
  • What do you most want community nurse navigators and nurse practitioners to know about treating patients with lung cancer?
