From the time of diagnosis, the patient and family embark on a \"roller coaster\" ride of uncertainty, fear and hope. Despite improved medical outcomes, patients often experience severe functional impairment, as well as behavioural and cognitive dysfunction. Subsequently, they suffer from greater dependency and hopelessness than other cancer patients. The family caregivers are faced with multiple demands such as taking on new roles within the family and caring for their loved one while grieving the loss of the person they knew. The role of the nurse is to support the patient and the family throughout the illness trajectory, identify and promote their strengths and mobilize the necessary resources to facilitate patient and family coping. The purpose of this paper is to present, via a detailed case study, the impact of a malignant brain tumour on the patient and the family.

From the acute setting all the way to rehabilitation and community reintegration, nursing is there. Having well-educated and highly skilled nurses to monitor and care for stroke patients is crucial. Equally important is the collaboration of colleagues at a national level to facilitate and disseminate research and best practice guidelines across Canada. The National Stroke Nursing Council aims to fill this role. Stroke nurses from across Canada were invited to a national forum in 2005, hosted by the Canadian Stroke Network. The focus of this forum was to elucidate issues of concern to nurses across the stroke care continuum in relation to a Canadian Stroke Strategy. Subsequent to this forum, a cadre of nurses, after undergoing a rigorous screening process, were selected to form the inaugural National Stroke Nursing Council (NSNC).

Stroke prevention clinics (SPCs) were developed in order to address the needs, identified through research, for improved recognition and reaction to TIA/stroke symptoms, as well as for expediting investigations and implementing early stroke prevention interventions. Along with the advent of SPCs came a new role for nurses. As part of an interdisciplinary team, the nursing role continues to evolve in the southeastern region of Ontario. SPC nurses play an important role in assisting to coordinate activities in and outside the clinic setting, and are instrumental in raising public and health care provider awareness of TIA, stroke, stroke prevention and risk factor management. In this article, the evolution of SPCs in Ontario is discussed. A case study is used to illustrate both the role of SPCs in expediting diagnosis and treatment for patients experiencing TIA or stroke symptoms, as well as the nursing role and how evidence is incorporated into practice. Results of some preliminary research and the issues involved in establishing an appropriate outcome evaluation process are explored. As well, the potential for nursing research within SPCs and future directions for the nursing role are appraised.</p>","PeriodicalId":77025,"journal":{"name":"Axone (Dartmouth, N.S.)","volume":"28 3","pages":"14-9"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"26875415","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study process allowed the researchers to capture the participants' sources of hope. An unexpected finding was that participants described taking part in the interviews as \"therapeutic.\" The findings support the notion that clinicians need to engage patients in discussions of hope, particularly the question of hope and its meaning, in order to adequately address their most important concerns and understand their point of view.

In 2001, it was named one of nine Regional Stroke Centres in Ontario, with a mandate to coordinate stroke services across the continuum of care in keeping with best practices in the west Greater Toronto Area (GTA). Within its role as a Regional Stroke Centre, THC has successfully implemented an innovative approach to the delivery of stroke prevention services in its regional catchment area. Building on best practices, it has introduced a specialized and interdisciplinary team to provide timely and effective primary and secondary prevention services. The rapid growth in utilization to more than 2000 patients in the last fiscal year (2004-2005), suggests that the clinic is meeting a real need in the community for stroke prevention services. Many of these patients now benefit from appropriate medical management, stroke awareness education, lifestyle counselling, and expedited referrals to other specialists.
