technically competent manner with good communication, shared decision making and cultural sensitivity”

  • Following a diagnosis many women experience serious

psychological distress; if not addressed early in the process this can adversely affect care and outcomes.

  • A study by Baildam et al (2001) showed that within the

cancer trajectory BCN’s were able to identify unmet psychosocial issues in a quicker timeframe than other medical professionals.

  • Despite growing numbers of women being

diagnosed with breast cancer there has also been an increase in survival.

  • With the growing numbers of survivors there is a

high need for accessible and quality post treatment medical and psychosocial care.

  • Those who received systematic BCN care were

better informed and reported feeling better supported than those who did not.

  • A portion of breast cancer patients will not be cured. Some women live for just a

few months, but many may live for several years while constantly receiving treatment in some form to keep their disease in control.

  • The BCN provides education and support to the patient and their family while

also encouraging candid and honest discussions about end of life care and palliative care.

  • BCNs are a strong patient advocate

  • Approximately 1/3 of people diagnosed with cancer live in rural, regional,
  • r remote areas. BCNs are of great value to patients in these more

isolated locations. Challenges

  • BCNs are not regulated by a professional body, nor do they have a

consistent structure to their practice. They practice in a variety of settings all of which have different roles and expectations of BCNs.

Women that didn’t have BCN (n =22) “you need professional training with this sort of thing because it’s a multifaceted problem…the physical – the women’s self image of herself, the psychological and the fear of dying and the physical un-wellness.” “I would have liked to have talked to someone” “I think they did their best……nothing that was adequate” “What I needed was emotional support specifically related to breast cancer”

  • “Participants reported they felt comfortable approaching the BCN for

information or support because they knew that this was the focus of her work, and that she had time to respond to their needs. They were able to develop a trusting relationship in which they felt supported, were well informed, had someone to talk to, and someone to go to for help at any stage of their treatment, Accessibility of the BCN was mentioned as a highly positive feature

  • f the role and having familiar person always available to them was important

and reduced their levels of anxiety”.

OUR STORY

18

The McGrath Foundation was co- founded by Jane McGrath and her husband Glenn in 2005 after Jane was first diagnosed with breast cancer at just 31 years old. Jane became a passionate believer in the need for breast care nurses and greater breast awareness for all women regardless of

  • age. The McGrath Breast Care Nurse

Programme and Curve Lurve are the result of Jane’s legacy.

WH WHY Y WE WE DO WHAT T WE DO

To ensure every person in Australia experiencing breast cancer has access to a dedicated breast care

  • nurse. With a 90% survival rate within

five years of diagnosis, more survivors means more nurses required.
