Episode 238: Cancer Genomics for Every Oncology Nurse
“Genomics is part and parcel of oncology treatment today. Even if a patient’s genomics might not affect the current choice of therapy, it may do so in the future. The use of genomics and biomarkers is just an evidence-based expansion and extension of our previous care,” ONS member Kristin Daly, MSN, ANP-BC, AOCNP®, nurse practitioner at the Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, MO, said in a conversation with Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BC, AOCNS®, oncology clinical specialist at ONS. Daly and Weimer discussed oncology nurses’ educational needs to bridge knowledge gaps in cancer genomics, identified genomics tools and resources specifically designed for clinical nursing practice, and shared strategies to implement them inn your patient care processes.
