Evaluating the Oncology-Related Education Needs of Emergency Nurses
Introduction
Treatment for patients with cancer in the emergency department ranges from treating life-threatening emergencies to symptom management or issues unrelated to their cancer, but for which cancer and its treatment may be complicating factors. Nurses are expected to manage the care of this population and be aware of risk factors for complications that may be unique to cancer patients. To date, education for emergency nurses regarding oncologic emergencies and the care for patients with cancer has been limited.
Methods
We conducted a cross-sectional needs assessment to establish emergency nurses’ educational needs (knowledge, skills, and attitudes) related to the care of patients with cancer and to evaluate if there are different educational needs for emergency nurses associated with the care of the cancer patient by practice setting type.
Results
Of 237 nurses surveyed, only 28% of nurse respondents indicated receiving any cancer-specific education or training. Overall, scores on a knowledge assessment were relatively low (mean 53%; range 9.5-85.7%; SD 13%). Nurses reported variable confidence and skills, with the weakest areas being in the triage of complications and oncologic emergencies, assessment of complications related to cancer treatment, and end-of-life conversations. Nearly all of the respondents (97%) indicated a need for oncologic education for emergency nurses with moderate-high priority in relation to other educational needs.
Discussion
Our findings suggest that emergency nurses need a stronger foundation of the knowledge and skills required to care for patients with cancer. Results from this study can inform future curriculum development efforts.
