What standards are available to guide oncology nursing practice?

In addition to the professional standards that guide our practice in Ontario and Canada, there are oncology nursing standards to guide practice.  As oncology nursing is specialized, the Canadian Association of Nurses in Oncology (CANO/ACIO) has developed standards and competencies for oncology nurse. The following standards are available on their website:

CANO/ACIO Practice Standards and Competencies for the Specialized Oncology Nurse

Standards of Care

CANO/ACIO Standards and Competencies for Cancer Chemotherapy Nursing Practice are in their final stages of development.
