Lisa A. Hall, MHA, CDP, Senior Director of Prevention and Screening at the Colorectal Cancer Alliance, discusses how nurses can help patients understand their individual risk for colorectal cancer and encourage patients to get screened at the appropriate time.
“There’s a number of things that nurses can really do in this space and that is starting with understanding the risk factors around this disease, and really making sure the patients that they care for understand these risk factors,” Ms. Hall explained.
