Abstract
Individuals affected by cancer live in a world that is at times dominated by biomedicine, treatment and technology. Most of the time, however, those in our care experience their cancer and treatment in a social world and in one that is very personal. Cancer nurses, therefore, need to be informed about the technology (therapy and developments of) and also about the individual’s context, values and beliefs in order to enable them to make informed choices and to be successful in managing treatment.
