Chemotherapy safety in the home pamphlet
| Clinical Guidelines for the Administration of Oral Chemotehrapy in the Community Setting In order to improve service delivery in cancer care the development of relationships with key stakeholders has been imperative, particularly in identifying service gaps.
One major service gap identified by stakeholders has been the lack ofinformation related to the safe administration of oral chemotherapy agents in the
community setting for health care professionals, patients and carers.
Oral chemotherapy carries the same risks in terms of potential for error and toxicities as chemotherapy administered by other routes and must be
administered according to the same standards as parenteral therapy.
The development of guidelines to ensure the safe administration of oral chemotherapy agents is therefore imperative and is in accordance with best practice and the cancer reform agenda. |
