With the Extraordinary Healer ® Award for Oncology Nursing, we at CURE® present our readers with a unique opportunity each year to honor oncology nurses who have helped guide them through the cancer experience. This year, many patients, survivors, caregivers and health professionals submitted inspirational essays describing the compassion, expertise and helpfulness that these special nurses exhibited.
We have compiled their tributes in Extraordinary Healers®: CURE ® Readers Honor Oncology Nurses, Volume 15, which celebrates the extraordinary men and women who make a difference in patients’ lives. Coupled with compelling photography, these moving stories of oncology nurses are told in CURE® readers’ own words.
