Breast Care Nurses
One of the things I've noticed since I've been on this forum are various discussions about Breast Care Nurses - who has one, what do they do, whether they're helpful or not, how to access one... etc, ...
Ladies I think it comes down to a few things ....
Always reach out and ask for help with McGrath or your local cancer unit if you need support... call the BCNA helpline or the cancer council in your state.
We need to remember they are human too.... they need to have breaks and take holidays so they can do this day in and day out for us ladies/men who need support etc...
Want more of them buy at PINK BUN in May at Bakers Delight and help raise monies to employ more of them.

you didn't diss any staff you raised a concern.
- the work load that each individual nurse has ....
- What area they are covering in rural areas that can be a huge area.
- my first McGrath Nurse was ok
- our new McGrath Nurse is awesome
- she started our local monthly support group and attends it, I see her like others have stated hitting the floor running basically each day. she goes out of her way to find the resources any of her patients will need.
