Abstract

Delivering multifaceted, quality care to women living with metastatic breast cancer (MBC) demands professional competence and an advanced level of practice. The breast cancer nursing community is evolving to meet this need as more nurses are appointed specifically for the advanced disease setting, while nurses who previously worked only in early stage disease are now delivering care across the disease trajectory, fulfilling a 'diagnosis to death' nursing model. The MBC nursing community, linked by UK charity Breast Cancer Care and the Roche Nursing Matters programme, offers forums for learning, and provides ongoing support to this group of nurses. This supplement has been commissioned by Roche Products Ltd to continue supporting nurses who treat patients with MBC by sharing learning and best practice, with a view to encouraging innovation in service delivery.
