The Australian Journal of Cancer Nursing, the official journal of the Cancer Nurses Society of Australia, is published twice yearly in May and October. Cancer nurses cover a wide range of specialisations in clinical practice, education and research. They make use of a variety of products and services and are located in all health care environments. The journal functions as both an educational tool and a means of communication between members of the Society and is distributed throughout Australia.

The Australian Journal of Cancer Nursing aims to provide a place where debate and the exchange of views can take place. We welcome papers on contemporary professional, policy or practical issues of concern and interest to cancer nurses.
