Acute and Palliative Care Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that studies nursing and palliative care to support patients with cancer.

AboutAbout the lab
Exploring nursing for cancer patients from the perioperative period to end of life.
The Acute and Palliative Care Lab studies perioperative nursing, as well as the psychological characteristics and nursing care of patients from the cancer treatment period through to end of life.
The patients it focuses on vary widely in developmental stage, health level, and psychosocial background, and in the lab seminar, graduate students freely exchange opinions with one another.
At the undergraduate level, the lab is in charge of the Adult Nursing Practicum (Perioperative), in which students mainly learn preoperative and postoperative nursing care for patients undergoing cancer surgery.
Key terms
- Perioperative period
- The period covering before, during, and after surgery.
- Palliative care
- Care that eases the physical and emotional distress caused by illness and supports quality of life.
