To help meet the needs of the growing number of people caring for family members and friends with cancer, the American Cancer Society has released the guide “Developing Caregiver Clinical Services: A Toolkit for Cancer Centers and Staff,” co-authored by University of Alabama at Birmingham School of Nursing Associate Professor and holder of the Doreen C. Harper Endowed Professorship in Nursing, J. Nicholas Odom, PhD, RN, ACHPN, FAAN. According to the ACS, this toolkit is the first of its kind to provide the tools and resources that oncology leaders, clinicians and staff members can use to implement for caregiver clinical services.
