Cancer survivorship advocacy.

To review the advocacy initiatives of major cancer-related organizations and coalitions that are working to effect funding, planning, and implementation of care and services for cancer survivors. Web sites of cancer-related member organizations, advocacy associations' policy staff representatives, and published peer-reviewed health policy literature. Health care reform creates near endless opportunities for nurses to participate in and contribute to the development of public policy to support meeting the needs of cancer survivors. Emerging public policy initiatives, including legislation and regulation created with professional nursing's contributions are most likely to reflect the needs of cancer survivors.

Evolving nursing science and practice in cancer survivorship.

To review the status of cancer survivorship care planning and delivery, resources and tools available to advance care, and explore professional nursing's potential to affect the quality of care available to cancer survivors. Published peer reviewed literature, web-based resources, and cancer-related professional organizations' resources. The population of cancer survivors is characterized as "booming," and available resources are also booming. Professionals involved in planning and delivering cancer survivorship care have access to tested tools, resources, information, and data useful for programmatic strategic planning and individualized survivor care plans. There are significant challenges to implementation, but there are also hopeful indicators that holistic care and services can be both cost-effective and used to improve care and quality of life for survivors. Nurses have significant roles in the planning and delivery of survivorship care. There are as yet no clearly defined pathways, guidelines, and standard metrics that reflect the value of these nursing roles, though there are interesting and intriguing early indicators of value that should stimulate the imagination of oncology nurses regardless of care setting, geographic location, and population to be served.

Survivorship care planning: one size does not fit all.

To describe the delivery of survivorship care and methods to stratify risk to support the notion that "one size does not fit all." Published articles between 2007 and 2014 and original research findings. The development and implementation of survivorship care into practice provides barriers and opportunities. National mandates are pushing the delivery of a survivorship care plan, which requires the ability to develop and deliver this tool and the necessary health care delivery model to manage the unique needs of each cancer survivor. Oncology nurses and advanced practice nurses will play a crucial role in the development of survivorship care from education and assessment to the delivery of coordinated care.
