Become a de Souza Nurse
Compassionate. Empowered. Interdisciplinary. Evidence-based. Engaged in mindful practice.
That’s a de Souza Nurse.
At the de Souza Institute, we believe nurses play a vital role in caring for patients throughout the cancer journey – through prevention, screening, diagnosis, treatment, survivorship and palliation.
We also believe in nursing excellence. Nurses provide cancer care in every setting – primary care, general, specialized, pediatric, community and palliative. That care should be the very best.
Cancer patients are facing a pivotal time in their lives. How nurses provide them with care can make a profound difference. A de Souza nurse is aware and mindful. S/he recognizes that every conversation and interaction with the patient and family is significant. That’s the de Souza difference.
