Autism Stories: Bruce Petherick and Paula Holmes-Rodman
"“Oncology nurses need to think about how they communicate before what they communicate. No matter how much incredible knowledge that oncology nurse has, unless and until they know how that patient communicates, they’re useless. They can’t just walk in, impart knowledge, hand over a pamphlet, ask a one-to-ten scale, and walk out", says Paula Holmes-Rodman.
