In my future practice, I will endeavor to create time and space for patients to discuss their concerns with me, for which I will need the support of my colleagues, as well as time management and prioritization skills, which I hope to consolidate as I become a more experienced nurse. Above all, reflection has made me more aware of my role in providing support for patients who are in a variety of places in their cancer journey, and encouraged me to take the first step when a patient appears to need help and advice, rather than waiting for them to ask.
