Message from the PresidentOn behalf of the ISNCC Board of Directors, I am pleased to welcome you to the 2016-2017 ISNCC Annual Report. This report outlines ISNCC’s activities over the past year including membership, major initiatives and financials.

In the 2016-2017 fiscal year, ISNCC undertook various international initiatives supporting our strategic plan. ISNCC is able to accomplish this work through the development and engagement of international cancer nursing leaders and other ISNCC members. ISNCC continues to focus on providing resources with the ultimate goal of increasing the capacity of nurses to be leaders in cancer care.

ISNCC had another productive year. We held a successful International Conference on Cancer Nursing (ICCN) 2016 in Hong Kong, China and look forward to a more intimate and research-focused ICCN 2017 in Anaheim, California as well as ICCN 2018 in Auckland, New Zealand.

ISNCC continues to manage an active portfolio of projects, such as the Eastern European Center of Excellence in Nurses and Tobacco Control and the Cervical & Breast Cancer Screening in Latin America. The nurses that lead these projects are doing a tremendous job leading capacity building activities and developing resources to the regions in which they operate. We have been extremely fortunate to receive continued funding from the Bristol-Myers Squibb Foundation to continue the Eastern European Center of Excellence Project, as well as new funding for a planning project to further develop nurse leadership. I would also like to thank Pfizer Independent Grants for Learning & Change and the American Cancer Society for their funding of these projects.

The ISNCC Board of Directors puts a lot of effort into strategic planning. Through this process, and with input from our members, we updated our vision and mission, focusing our efforts on leadership development for nurses in cancer care.

ISNCC continues to provide resources to the international cancer nursing community including through the Society’s official journal ‘Cancer Nursing’, the ISNCC blog, the online educational module platform ISNCC Insight and the ISNCC Community on Sosido. Furthermore, in the 2016-2017 fiscal year we developed and issued position statements on Cervical Cancer Screening & Prevention, Cancer Pain and Models of Palliative Care.

I also must mention that ISNCC finds itself in a challenging environment from a financial perspective. The generation of the revenue required to sustain ISNCC’s operations at its current levels is becoming increasingly difficult, with diminishing ICCN registration and sponsorship. This is a reality for many national and international professional societies. We are re-framing the opportunities for sponsorship at ICCNs and deploying new strategies to increase membership and attendance at meetings. ISNCC will continue to provide much needed resources for international cancer nursing capacity building initiatives in this challenging financial environment; however, ISNCC’s financial constraints must be acknowledged.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank the ISNCC Board of Directors and committee members, whose tireless work continues to help maximize the role of nurses to reduce the global burden of cancer care.

We are looking forward to the continued development and evolution of ISNCC.

Capacity Building ProjectsISNCC leads a portfolio of nurse capacity building projects. In partnership with the national or regional cancer nursing association, these projects develop much needed resources of nurses in these regions.

Project: Eastern Europe Nurses’ Center of Excellence For Tobacco Control

Project Team: Iveta Nohavova (Czech Republic), Eva Kralikova (Czech Republic), Cati Gulie (Romania), Erzsébet Vecsernyés (Hungary), Eva Roubickova (Czech Republic), Gabriel Balint (Slovakia), Katarina Lokar (Slovenia), Katerina Mala (Czech Republic), Márta Fényes (Hungary), Stanislava Kulova (Czech Republic), Vladislava Felbrova (Czech Republic), Stella Bialous (USA), Marjorie Wells (USA)

Funder: Bristol-Myers Squibb Foundation

In partnership with nurse leaders in the Czech Republic, Hungary, Slovakia, Slovenia, and Romania, this project uses a combination of evidence-based strategies in order to increase capacity and improve tobacco control skills and increase the levels of education and awareness of tobacco control in the community. This initiative was

originally awarded funding in 2013. In December 2016, the Bristol-Myers Squibb Foundation awarded additional funding in order to expand the program in the five countries and the Republic of Moldova.

Project: Cervical and Breast Cancer Screening in Latin America

Project Team: Luz Esperanza Ayala de Calvo (Colombia), Mirna Esther Laughlin (Panama), Rosario Caballero Tinoco (Mexico), Marise Dutra Souto (Brazil), Catherine Johnson (Australia)

Funders: American Cancer Society (ACS), Union for International Cancer Control (UICC), US Centers for Disease Control (US CDC)

Through funding from the UICC and the US CDC and in partnership with nurse leaders in Latin America, ISNCC has organized a series of cervical cancer screening workshops in El Savador, Peru and Colombia. This work was leveraged for additional funding from ACS to continue the workshops in Colombia, Brazil and Mexico, as well as a breast cancer screening component.

14

New Projects Underway For FY2017-2018In late 2016 ISNCC was awarded funding for the following projects. These projects are still in the early stages. More information on these projects will be made available over the course of the year.

The ISNCC Blog is live – share your expert knowledge and experiences with other international oncology nursing professionals. ISNCC welcomes all oncology nursing professionals to contribute articles that are relevant to oncology nursing. Please visit http://news.isncc.org for more information.

CANCER NURSING

‘Cancer Nursing’ is the official journal of ISNCC. This collaboration between ISNCC and Wolters Kluwer, publishers of ‘Cancer Nursing’, ensures that esteemed published knowledge is readily available to international cancer nurses.

SOSIDO

ISNCC Individual Members have access to the ISNCC Community on Sosido as a membership benefit. Sosido is an online platform for healthcare professionals to share published research and clinical knowledge, allowing members within a specialty community to connect and broadcast recent work or advances in their field. ISNCC members have access to the Sosido platform and receive weekly email digests summarizing all activity in the ISNCC community.

NATIONAL ORGANIZATION GUIDANCE DOCUMENT

Primarily through the Member Development Committee, ISNCC works with nurses in different countries to help them establish their own national cancer nursing organization. To this end, ISNCC offers a guidance document on how to establish a national cancer nursing organization. Cancer nurses need to have their own national organization to speak for them and raise cancer nursing related issues at the national level. The national organization would represent cancer nurses within a country to inform practice, develop networks and share experiences. Countries with limited resources may face particular challenges when attempting to establish a national organization. Resources

can be limited and there may be poorly developed technical infrastructure. The imperative to establish national cancer nursing societies in countries with limited resources is gathering pace as the incidence of cancer rises. These societies will be pivotal in the efforts to prevent, control and treat cancer. The functions and benefits of a national organization may include:

• Provide leadership and a national voice for cancer nurses

• Development and dissemination of standards, training and education

• Support each other and share experiences through opportunities for networking

• Initiate research that will lead to the enhancement of care for people with cancer

• Enable concerns from local forums to feed into national policy and practice

• Collaborate with other societies involved in the care of the person with cancer

• Promote nurses’ contributions to national cancer control activities (preventing new cancers, improving survival, alleviating human suffering)

Partnerships & OutreachISNCC has formal memorandums of understanding (MOU), or equivalent agreements, with the following organizations:

• Asian Oncology Nursing Society (AONS)

• Canadian Association of Nurses in Oncology (CANO)

• European Oncology Nursing Society (EONS)

• International Psycho-Oncology Society (IPOS)

• Multinational Association of Supportive Care in Cancer (MASCC)

• Oncology Nursing Society (ONS)

ISNCC holds the following international memberships:

• International Council of Nurses (ICN)

• Union for International Cancer Control (UICC)
