3 Message from the ISNCC President On behalf of the ISNCC Board of Directors, I am pleased to present you with the ISNCC Annual Report. This report will outline ISNCC s successes over the past fiscal year, including membership, partnerships, major initiatives and financials.

ISNCC is able to do this work through the development and engagement of cancer nurse leaders via our international network of professionals in the field of cancer nursing. ISNCC has continued to work to build and sustain our stakeholder relationships and to ensure the ongoing success of these relationships in our work internationally. ISNCC had an excellent year with some very exciting highlights.

International Cancer ICNN Nursing News Influencing Health Policy ISNCC Major Initiatives POSITION STATEMENTS AND GUIDELINES ISNCC has the following posted Position Statements: The Role of Cancer Nurses in the World Joint Statement Cervical Cancer Prevention and Screening Position Statement Cancer Pain Position Statement Tobacco Position Statement Cancer Nursing Education Position Statement In 2014, the Asian Oncology Nursing Society (AONS), Canadian Association of Nurses in Oncology (CANO/ACIO), Cancer Nurses Society of Australia (CNSA), European Oncology Nursing Society (EONS), International Society of Nurses in Cancer Care (ISNCC), and Oncology Nursing Society (ONS) developed a new position statement on The Role of Cancer Nurses in the World in honour of World Cancer Day Taking place under the tagline Not beyond us, World Cancer Day 2015 took a 15

16 positive and proactive approach to the fight against cancer, highlighting that solutions do exist across the continuum of cancer, and that they are within our reach. Please find below an excerpt of the position statement on The Role of Cancer Nurses in the World: The growing demand for cancer care, from prevention to palliative care, along with rapidly changing healthcare systems provides opportunities for cancer nurses to play a pivotal and increasingly important role in delivering high quality, safe, effective and efficient healthcare to people affected by, or at risk for, cancer. As the largest group of healthcare providers globally, in most countries around the world nurses are the backbone of the health care delivery system. NATIONAL ORGANIZATION GUIDANCE DOCUMENT ISNCC offers a Guidance Document on How to Establish a National Cancer Nursing Organization. Cancer Nurses need to have their own national organization to speak for them and raise cancer nursing related issues at the national level. The national organization would represent cancer nurses within a country to inform practice, develop networks and share experiences. Countries with limited resources may face particular challenges when attempting to establish a national organization. Resources can be limited and there may be poorly developed technical infrastructure. The imperative to establish national cancer nursing societies in countries with limited resources is gathering pace as the incidence of cancer rises. These societies will be pivotal in the efforts to prevent, control and treat cancer. The functions and benefits of a national organization may include: Provide leadership and a national voice for cancer nurses Development and dissemination of standards, training and education Support each other and share experiences through opportunities for networking Initiate research that will lead to the enhancement of care for people with cancer Enable concerns from local forums to feed into national policy and practice Collaborate with other societies involved in the care of the person with cancer Promote nurses contributions to national cancer control activities (preventing new cancers, improving survival, alleviating human suffering) OTHER PUBLICATIONS The ISNCC President published a book chapter in the Springer Publication Cancer Care in Countries in Transition, in partnership with Oncology Nursing Society (ONS) USA. 16
