Celebrating our specialist cancer nurses

It's National Cancer Clinical Nurse Specialist Day today, Friday 14 March – a social media awareness day that has been developed to highlight and celebrate the hugely important role that the cancer nursing workforce provides in support of patients and UK-wide health systems on a daily basis.

The idea for a national cancer CNS day was born out of the knowledge that the growth of the cancer workforce is not keeping pace with the increasing demand for cancer services.

Cancer Clinical Nurse Specialists are highly skilled professionals who provide expert care and support to patients throughout their cancer journey. They play a crucial role in coordinating and delivering personalised care interventions, addressing both physical and emotional needs.

Here at the Cancer Care and Haematology Fund we're proud to be sharing our support for this incredible workforce, and particularly those who do such wonderful work for the Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust here in Buckinghamshire.
