Key Session Takeaways1. Radiation oncology nursing is rooted in a historical journey. Our

past informs the present and will secure our future. Early roles are focused on clinical trends, symptom management, and the acceptance of radiation oncology as a major treatment modality.

2. Contemporary radiation oncology nursing is based on clinical trends, support for MDTs, structured delivery systems, and supportive evidence to measure success. An emphasis on data acquisition will provide proof to drive shared decision making and secure roles of radiation oncology nurses.

3. The future is focused on clinical excellence, prioritizing patient care, shared decision making, sustainable change, and ensuring MDT models of care. Knowledge of current literature with a focus on EBP will support radiation oncology nursing practice.
