Hello and welcome to our website! The goal of the Oncology Nursing e-Mentorship Program is to promote the optimal development and implementation of generalist, specialized, and advanced oncology nurses in Ontario through effective career planning and mentorship.

The program builds on a successful Mentorship Program that was launched for advanced practice nurses (APNs) in 2007 by the Ontario Oncology APN Community of Practice, Cancer Care Ontario, and the School of Nursing at McMaster University.With the support of the de Souza Institute, the program has expanded to include all Ontario nurses who care for patients and families at risk for or affected by cancer. This includes nurses involved in a variety of cancer related services such as: cancer prevention; early detection and screening; treatment; survivorship; palliative, and end-of-life care.
