Nurse-led side effects clinics for men with prostate cancer
The Irish Cancer Society, in partnership with The Movember Foundation, has today revealed its plans to open specialist nurse-led side effects clinics for men with prostate cancer in 2014. The clinics, which will be located in two designated cancer care centres, will be launched next year on a pilot basis under a new programme called the Care, Advice, Support and Education (CASE) initiative. The incidence of prostate cancer is growing every year with 3,172 men diagnosed in Ireland in 2010.
