The Graduate Diploma in Cancer and Haematology Nursing aims to assist nurses who care for people affected by cancer and haematological illness to develop their knowledge and skills for their care. Students will investigate the biology of cancer and haematology, associated treatments and integrated multidisciplinary management. Cancer is the single largest cause of premature death in Australia and represents nearly one-fifth of the total burden of disease in the health system. Students will acquire knowledge about all aspects of the prevention, diagnosis and management of cancer, future treatment trends and the exploration of the impact of these illnesses on the individual, family and community. Drawing on research and the theoretical underpinnings of cancer and haematology care, students will learn nursing interventions to reduce the impact of cancer and its treatment. With the increasing trends towards both home-based care and towards intensive treatments such as Stem Cell Transplantation, this course provides a broad range of content across a diverse spectrum of cancer and haematology care and explores broadening roles for nurses.
