Abstract:
OBJECTIVES:To discuss the role and challenges of the oncology nurse navigator working within a multidisciplinary team caring for patients with various types of cancers. DATA SOURCES:Published empirical research and critical analysis articles. CONCLUSION:The experienced oncology nurse in the role of navigator has the disease-specific knowledge necessary to provide patient-centered care throughout the cancer continuum and promote positive patient outcomes. The role of the oncology nurse navigator has a positive impact on both the patient and the cancer team by providing continuity of care and improved communication. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING PRACTICE:Oncology nurse navigators need a concrete definition of their role and function as they serve not only the patient but the cancer care system in which they work. Acknowledging foundational concepts as a guide, programs can then develop and expand. The role needs to be flexible as the health care system changes. Future development of the role can be guided by oncology nurse navigators who evaluate their programs and identify common challenges and system barriers.
