The concept of health promotion provides opportunities and challenges for cancer nurses to work in partnership with other healthcare providers to enhance the health and quality of life of cancer patients.
In many countries, cancer is the leading or the second leading cause of death.1,2 The incidence of cancer has continued to increase steadily worldwide throughout the last century. Because of advances in early cancer detection and cancer treatments, the 5-year survival rates of all cancer patients have increased dramatically worldwide. Therefore, it is critical to plan for the future health of today's cancer patients by implementing health promotion interventions during and after treatment.3 The need for health promotion may be even more critical for people with cancer whose quality of life and ability to continue living independently often heavily rely on maintaining their health, which may be significantly compromised by cancer.
Health promotion is the process of enabling people to increase control over, and to improve their health.” Health Promotion Glossary, 1998
