Biomarker Testing Nursing Process

Overview

Apply the biomarker testing nursing process to your practice to guide the delivery of genomic care to all patients with cancer. The process begins with reviewing biomarker testing results to understand how those results will influence patients’ treatment decisions and nursing care. It provides guidance on both germline and somatic testing processes. Also, available for download is the facilitator guide to help when presenting this information in a group setting.
