Purpose: This study to identify the current status of cancer centers in Korea in terms of organization ofhospital.
Methods: 21 cancer centers, from regional cancer centers to the largest hospitals, were surveyed from October to November 2014. The questionnaire was developed by the board members of the Oncology Nursing Society.
Results: Centers specializing in cancer treatment were either cancer hospitals or centers affiliated with larger hospitals. 81% operated wards solely for cancer patients. The average number of beds was 354.2, and each center had independent laboratories, chemotherapy infusion rooms and pharmacies. Degree of nursing staff varied from grades 1 to 3. The nursing department and ward were jointly responsible for educating new nurses. In cancer nursing, the policy varied according to institution. For patient education, the oncology Advanced Practice Nurse (APN) mainly informed patients of the adverse effects of chemotherapy and central line care. 90.5% appointed oncology APNs, who were variously designated (47.6%). 10.5% of APNs held concurrent positions.
Conclusion: As cancer has increased medical professional organizations have shown a variety of forms of organization and human resources management. A political approach seems to be required for institutions for nursing care, patient education, the role and qualifications of APN.
