The nurse practitioner (NP) in the Wellness Beyond Cancer Program survivorship programme is pivotal in ensuring comprehensive care for patients at high risk of recurrence for breast and GI cancers. The NP is responsible for cancer surveillance per clinical practice guidelines, monitoring patients to detect signs of recurrence, and managing the long‑term toxicity of cancer treatments.
