GayleGW Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Hello all! I am glad to have found this organization! I am a veteran oncology nurse, but I have recently been asked to develop a lung nurse navigator program for our community hospital. We are primarily a "private practice" community, so organizing and finding patients that are being admitted can be a bit of a challenge! I am often the first nurse to start educating patients about lung cancer. Many of the patients I see have just had their lung cancer removed and are hopeful that they are "done" with cancer! I am glad that I now have a resource I can refer them to for later support and education. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SandraL Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 That's great Gayle. Please refer them here. There are many kind knowledgeable people who participate on this site. We are saddened when people have a reason to find us but glad that they have found the site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
recce101 Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 Hi, Gayle, welcome to the group! Another great resource is cancergrace.org (GRACE — Global Resource for Advancing Cancer Education). GRACE is led by Dr. Howard "Jack" West, a Seattle oncologist who is an internationally-recognized expert on lung cancer and who gives high priority to promptly answering questions online. A lot of us are "dual citizens" and have the same usernames there as here. Aloha, Ned Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
