Breast Care Nurses
Just wondering, typically when do you get allocated a breast care nurse? I was diagnosed 24/6/16, have surgery booked for next Friday 15/7/16 but I haven't been contacted by a breast care nurse yet. ...
See if an online search turns one up for you. https://www.mcgrathfoundation.com.au/OurNurses/FindANurse.aspx
Usually where you have a mammogram centre in a public hospital has a nurse who visits. I had my mammogram at a private centre and it wasn't until I was referred to the surgeon in the public hospital that he contacted the McGrath nurse for me. I didn't even know they existed prior to then. She did the bra fitting for me and ordered my journey kit for me. The book in the journey kit is how I found this forum.
