Also, the trend of the medical care is to demonstrate treatment efficacy by means of quantifiable outcome measures. Thus, the variety of interventions provided to people with cancer and survivors of cancer should be accompanied with appropriate measures. Some health care models were used to fill the gap such as “Patient Centered Care”. Providing patient-centered care requires comprehensive inter-professional and multidisciplinary treatment planning.…

    One area that I believe I was successful in was in regards to competency 3.3, 3.8 and 3.12.

One area that I have been working on and would like to improve upon is developing mini DM assignments with each client that I take into my care.…
