Abstract

APSHO's mission is to improve the quality of care for patients with cancer by supporting critical issues in educational, clinical, and professional development for advanced practitioners in hematology and oncology. CE-accredited educational sessions for physicians, nurses, pharmacists, nurse practitioners and physician assistants will be presented throughout the conference which will include didactic, interactive, evidence-based and fair-balanced content targeted to the advanced practitioners (APs) in oncology. Advanced practitioners and physicians will come together in a team setting to discuss current treatment options and advances in the care of the patient with cancer, describe key practice initiatives that are essential to the AP, and identify means to improve collaboration--all with an ultimate goal of improving patient outcomes and decreasing adverse events.
