Cancer Nursing Today Announces Partnership With Beyond Oncology


Cancer Nursing Today, an online platform that curates cutting-edge research, news, conference coverage, practice updates, and published literature for an oncology nursing audience, is excited to announce its partnership with beyond Oncology.

As part of this partnership, beyond Oncology’s founder, Elaine S. DeMeyer, MSN, RN, AOCN®, BMTCN®, will join Cancer Nursing Today, as its first-ever Editor in Chief, bringing an experienced voice to the platform and leveraging nurse authors from beyond Oncology’s unique writing mentorship program.

The goal of this partnership is to provide budding oncology nurse-writers with the skills and tools they need to be successful, through a robust mentorship program and an opportunity to be published on Cancer Nursing Today’s powerful and wide-reaching platforms. Guided by experienced Mentors, the Mentee contributions will highlight current and emerging trends and best practices for nurses in all settings to replicate within their practices.

This partnership kicked off at The Oncology Nursing Society’s (ONS) annual meeting, where a nurse mentee of beyond Oncology, Kate B. Hubbard, MSN, RN, OCN, NPD-BC, presented a poster, “Pairing Novice Nurse Writers with Experienced Nurse Writers to Share Cancer Nursing Best Practices Through a Formal Writing Mentorship Program,” outlining the program, and explaining how nurse Mentees can grow more experienced through writing mentorship.

Historically, nurses were limited to publishing opportunities in journals, books, or other print material. This new partnership will enable them to contribute to multi-platform content through regular features on the Cancer Nursing Today blogs, videos, social media, and email newsletters, allowing them to progress in their field and preparing them for other authorships. “Our Mentors can help novice authors choose a topic, provide direction and editorial advice, and role-model how to navigate the publication process. Our goal is to make writing easy instead of starting ‘too big’ and quickly becoming discouraged with the writing process,” says DeMeyer.

“Cancer Nursing Today and beyond Oncology share a deep commitment to empowering oncology professionals with the tools and resources needed to be successful in improving patient care, so this partnership is a natural fit in shared values. We are excited to collaborate and grow our digital platforms with this important partnership. Cancer Nursing Today remains dedicated to supporting healthcare professionals in their practice,” says Courtney Leonard, Vice President of Operations at Cancer Nursing Today’s parent company, Mashup Media.
