Abstract

As Head of Oncological Surgery and the Gynecology Clinic at Berlin's Charit Comprehensive Cancer Center, Jalid Sehouli is one of the world's leading cancer specialists. Every day, he experiences situations in which conversations take on a life-or-death significance. Delivering bad news is one of the most difficult tasks we face in life, especially for professionals such as doctors, police, or crisis intervention personnel, yet it is rarely touched on during training. Over the course of their career, a doctor will hold conversations with around 200,000 patients and their relatives that invariably involve delivering good or bad news. Either way, existential questions will arise, and the way the news is delivered is vital: recent studies show that it has a significant impact on patients' quality of life and the way they experience treatment. Mixing his wide-ranging professional experience with personal stories, Sehouli describes the emotions and perspectives of those who have to give and receive bad news from a broad perspective. His book can be helpful for anyone who has to deliver bad news--managers, friends, or parents. - Cover

Abstract

This book reframes the important discussion about lumpectomy, mastectomy and breast reconstruction around the women who have had these operations. It offers women's unique viewpoints about the less discussed but essential part of breast cancer: the surgery nearly every woman has, regardless of whether she has reconstruction or not. - Introduction, page ix

Abstract

This guide describes the principles and processes involved in the development of the Chinese Peer Navigator Program at the BC Cancer Agency, Vancouver Centre and the bilingual resources that are used with Chinese-speaking patients (Mandarin, Cantonese and English).

This program also reflects "best practice" standards and can be used for future groups or organizations who may wish to adapt it for future peer navigator programs.
