Abstract:
People suffering from cancer-related problems do not only need specific therapies, but also an adequate psychological support. Due to their specific function, nurses are in a position to comprehend these needs, whether they are expressed or not: this is a result not only of their technical and theoretical preparation, but also of their predisposition to a global approach to patients. This leads to a trusting relationship that allows the nurse to be supportive in dealing with one of the most frequent problems affecting cancer patients since better control of nausea and pain has been achieved: fatigue. For this purpose, research has begun in the Division of Medical Oncology Zone 3 of Fano composed of two steps: a cognitive survey and planning of suitable solutions. The results of the first step are described.
