Development of online cancer resources to support pre-registration nurses and allied health professionals to increase their knowledge and understanding of cancer care

Le résumé fourni par la source

Cancer rates are increasing, and more people are living with cancer and its consequences. Healthcare students will be caring for people affected by cancer in all clinical contexts. However, pre-registration programmes can include limited cancer education and not all students will have the opportunity for a clinical placement in a cancer setting. This can result in healthcare students feeling unprepared to care for people affected by cancer. To address this need, nine e-learning modules, collectively called the Foundations of Cancer Care, have been developed to support students’ knowledge, understanding and confidence about cancer. This paper outlines the development and peer review of the Foundations of Cancer Care. The resultant modules will be freely available to all those with an Open Athens account or NHS or UK university email address via the NHS Learning Hub (https://learninghub.nhs.uk/) from Spring 2023.
