If I could only pick one thing to change about Irish Oncology, it would be the development of a functional EHR, that extended from the referral centre to the GP and to the patient. @QUBCancerProf is completely correct on this topic. It would save me hours per day. If I could pick two things, I would like to solve anti-cancer drug reimbursement. If I could pick three things, I’d have a PET CT scanner in every designated cancer centre. There are more things, I have a long list.
Ireland is living in a digital desert and must bring in an electronic patient health record urgently. I'm like a broken record on this but Ireland's digital health immaturity will deny Irish patients access to the best care and undoubtedly cost lives rte.ie/news/health/2024/0626…

This European Cancer Nursing Day, I want to pay tribute to all nurses who provide care to cancer patients across our health service. They support patients with such compassion from diagnosis through to treatment & follow-up care. Great leadership provided by @hseNCCP nursing team
