About the Book

This Open Access textbook covers the effects impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on Cancer care and how health care professionals and people with a cancer diagnosis have been affected. It discusses current research covering COVID and Cancer and considers the different impacts on patients with solid tumours and those with a haematological malignancy. The authors critically appraise how technology has been used to combat the pandemic as well as impacts on patient management and their well-being, education of health care professionals as well as the delivery of oncology cancer treatments. They also examine the ongoing psychological effects on patients, health care professionals and provide an analysis of the effects of the pandemic on the charitable sector in cancer care. Importantly this book provides both a UK and a European perspective on the above as well as looking forward to appraise the long-term effect of the pandemic on cancer care, both positive and negative.

Helen Roe has been a key member of the UK Oncology Nursing Society (UKONS) for many years, including the role of Board member and President. Until the end of 2022 on a day-to-day basis she was employed as Consultant Cancer Nurse by Newcastle upon Tyne Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, which is part of the Northern Cancer Alliance in the UK. Previously she was a Consultant Editor for the British Journal of Nursing Oncology supplement.

She worked in adult cancer care for most of her career and felt privileged to have fulfilled the role of Consultant Cancer Nurse, which enabled her to remain clinical day to day, yet also be active in research, service developments and educating others. Throughout her career she developed a wealth of skills, knowledge and expertise in patient care, leadership and service development, all of which influenced her day-to-day practice and ultimately the patient care she and others provided.

Her specialist area of clinical expertise was the management of patients with breast cancer, from receiving neo-adjuvant treatments through to end-of-life care. This involved assessing patients; managing symptoms and treatment toxicities, prescribing, requesting radiological investigations, developing and leading services and ensuring patients were offered the opportunities to take part in research. She presented at many conferences, from local to international; published extensively on an array of topics and constantly explored ways to enhance patient care throughout her career.
