Track 1: Oncology Nursing

Oncology nurses work in a multi-disciplinary team, in a variety of settings, from the inpatient ward, to the bone marrow transplant unit, through to the community. Oncology nurses often serve as your first line of communication, and help coordinate the many aspects of your care throughout cancer treatment. They may perform a number of duties. An Oncology Nurse provides care for cancer patients and those at risk for getting the disease. Oncology nurses must manage both the symptoms of a patient’s disease and the side effects of various cancer treatments. They monitor physical conditions, prescribe medication, and administer chemotherapy and other treatments. Oncology nurses witness much suffering but this stress is offset by the long-term relationships they often develop with patients and their families.

Track 2: General Issues in Cancer Nursing

One of the main challenges nurses face is collaborating with the many different organisations in the field of oncology. In addition to the difficulty of monitoring and educating patients who receive treatment in the out-patient setting. when informing or not becomes a dilemma- showing the main difficulties related to oncological treatment information regarding health staff, health system, and infrastructure; to invest or not - dilemmas related to finitude - showing situations of dilemmas related to pain and confrontation with finitude.  It is important to invest in the training of these professionals, preparing them in an ethical and human way to act as lawyers of the patient with cancer, in a context of dilemmas related mainly to the possibility of finitude. Part of their role is to listen to the emotional concerns and anxieties of the patient and refer them appropriately if needed.

Track 3: Nursing Care Plans

Care plans provide direction for individualized care of the client. A care plan flows from each patient's unique list of diagnoses and should be organized by the individual's specific needs. The care plan is a means of communicating and organizing the actions of a constantly changing nursing staff. The care plan should specifically outline which observations to make, what nursing actions to carry out, and what instructions the client or family members require. They serve as a guide for assigning staff to care for the client.

Track 4: Pediatric Cancer Nursing and Care

Pediatric Oncology is a specialty in medicine that deals with the diagnosis and treatment of children, usually up until the age of 18, who have cancer. Nurses who specialize in Pediatric oncology nursing “devote their careers to working with kids either suspected of having or who have cancer. In addition to nurses and physicians, the Pediatric oncology field relies on social workers, child life specialists and family counsellors. Pediatric oncology nurses act as care coordinators and collaborate with other cancer team members in order to provide the best care possible. They primarily strive to help their patients reach realistic health care goals

Track 8: Community Oncology Nursing

A community oncology nursing programme is to provide health services for patients receiving systemic cancer therapy, in response to a service need. Community nurses expanded their scope of practice and became partners with oncology day-ward nurses in caring for these patients. Community nurses developed the competence and confidence to safely deliver cancer care in the community. The commissioned service has shown year on year reductions in hospital-based care, increased provision of care closer to home, and improved patient satisfaction. This initiative shows that defined elements of acute cancer care can be safely delivered in the community so long as the training and support are provided.

Track 9: Cancer Pain Management

Having cancer does not always mean having pain. But if you do have pain, there are many different kinds of medicines, different ways to take the medicines and non-drug methods that can help relieve it. It may be short-lived or long-lasting, mild or severe, or even affect one or a few organs and bones. A person with well-managed pain has an improved quality of life. They are likely to sleep better and have more energy during the day. Being as active as possible also reduces the risk of ailments like pneumonia, blood clots and bedsores, which are associated with immobility.

Track 10: Critical Care Nursing

A critical care nurse, also sometimes referred to as an ICU nurse, is a type of nurse that provides care to patients that are in critical condition. These types of nurses may care for adults or children recovering from serious medical problems including illnesses and injuries. Some critical care nurses also work in wards or units that take care of patients only with specific medical problems, such as critical care burn units. Patients in critical condition are often deemed to be unstable, often unconscious, with erratic or extremely unhealthy vital signs. Many of these patients could also possibly be close to death. Because of this, the care that critical patients receive should be top-notch and highly specialized.

Track 11: Cancer Therapeutics

Targeted cancer therapies are drugs or other substances that block the growth and spread of cancer by interfering with specific molecules ("molecular targets") that are involved in the growth, progression, and spread of cancer. A central focus in cancer metabolomics research is biomarker discovery. Metabolites are theoretically ideal biomarkers and diagnostics because they can be easily measured from non-invasive urine or blood samples.

Importance of Cancer/Oncology Nursing:-

Cancer is the second leading cause of death worldwide and in all regions of the world except sub-Saharan Africa. Historically, the UAE had a much lower incidence of cancer than Western countries; however, over the last 40 years, it has undergone a period of dramatic economic, social, and demographic change, resulting in increased life expectancy and prosperity.

The Scope of Cancer Nursing Congress 2017 is to inform the scientific community about all innovative aspects regarding cancer diseases. The participants can gather knowledge about the topics like research findings, cancer preventions, environment and cancer, translational researches, pharmacology and pharmacogenomics aspects, cancer survivorship, cancer treatments, elderly cancer patients, innovative aspects regarding diagnosis, pathology, clinical experimental oncology etc by being a part of this event. It expands knowledge of the members those participating the global conference about different types of cancers like breast cancer, oral cancer, leukemia, skin cancer, colon cancer, rectal colon cancer, cervical cancer, lung cancer, thoracic cancer etc.

In the radiation oncology arena the nurses need to have an understanding of radiobiology and radiation physics. They are also responsible for extensive symptom management, patient education and the submission process for clinical trials or research protocols.

The roles include:

• Professional practice
• Critical thinking and analysis
• Provision and coordination of care
• Collaborative and therapeutic practice.

Scope and Importance of Cancer Nursing Congress 2017: Why to Attend???

Cancer/Oncology nursing conference is an opportunity to meet others within specialty to network and to learn the latest clinical information. It is an opportunity no nurse should overlook. I’ve always embraced the opportunity to attend nursing conferences and have made a point to encourage others to attend whenever the opportunity arises. Nursing conferences allow nurses of all levels of experience to participate in an area of career and education growth that is not easily found within the structure of the workplace. All too often the floor/ bedside nurse believes that conferences are only for management, while others may think that spending one or more days not earning a pay check may not outweigh the opportunity to clock in some additional overtime. There may be a whole host of other reasons why a nurse would prefer to remain home rather than attending a conference.  Despite the plentiful excuses (the top two being cost and time), the benefits far outweigh the costs. The oncology nurse practices at a high level of autonomy and accountability in collaboration with oncologists and the inter-professional Health-care team to provide a continuum of patient care from prevention, early detection, diagnosis, treatment, follow-up, palliation, bereavement and survivorship.

Why Singapore?

Though physically small, Singapore is an economic giant. It has been Southeast Asia’s most modern city for over a century. The city blends Malay, Chinese, Arab, Indian and English cultures and religions. Its unique ethnic tapestry affords visitors a wide array of sightseeing and culinary opportunities from which to choose.

Singapore is a popular country for foreign patients seeking medical treatment. Apart from high standard of medical care which is comparable to some of the best hospitals in the world, the cost of treatment at private hospitals is still lower than that at many hospitals in the States and Europe.

In Singapore, it accounts for 29.7% of female cancers and about 1,100 new cases are diagnosed with 270 deaths each year. This translates to about 3 women diagnosed every day and 1 death every other day. Clinical services in Singapore emphasize excellence, safety and trustworthiness, with internationally-accredited facilities and renowned physicians trained in the best centers in the world. Singapore's healthcare system was ranked as the sixth best in the world and the best in Asia by the World Health Organization in 2000. In addition, 13 hospitals and medical centers in Singapore have obtained Joint Commission International (JCI) accreditation.
