Before I begin, I want to acknowledge Black History Month both in Canada and the USA where the majority of our active #AYACSM participants are from. Here's a non-profit that is making a real difference: www.breastofus.com

#WorldCancerDay Grief due to losses Hope due to a major step forward in pancreatic cancer. Holding grief in one hand, progress in the other. Dreaming of a future where World Cancer Day is not needed and care is truly human #OncologyNursing #CancerNursing

🌍 Today is #WorldCancerDay #OncologyNurses are integral to patient-centered care, advocating for what matters most to patients & families through each step of the cancer journey 🫶🏻Let’s recommit to care that honors the whole person

Mark your calendars! Please tune in Tuesday, March 3rd @ 8PM ET for our next #AYACSM chat!

Yes - possibly!! That would be great! I know that people are out there - it's just a matter of reaching them and seeing what people's interests are #AYACSM

Q4: What do you wish you knew more about – in terms of #SocialMedia use? #AYACSM

I think in the #AYACSM community - many have left the space over the years. When I think of my OG peers, they're on to new adventures now. But, #AYACSM #CancerResearch is progressing, so we need to invite new people in #AYACSM

A1. I've been MIA on social media for the last year. In the past, I would say connecting with our community because social media is often the heartbeat of those we serve. #AYACSM

Q1: It’s February!! In the past half of a decade, the majority of our #AYACSM advocacy, programming and research activities have involved the use of #SocialMedia In your work – What benefits have you had come from using #SocialMedia in the past year? #AYACSM

Reminder to anyone viewing the chat or catching up at a later date: If you'd like to receive email notifications about the #AYACSM chats and a calendar invite/reminder - please send me your address and I will add you to the growing list!

Hi all! I’m @darcyburbage.bsky.social & I’m an oncology nurse, here to listen and learn! #AYACSM

We’re so glad to have you with us this evening! Be sure to post along using: #AYACSM #AYACSM was co-founded and has been maintained over the past eleven years by @ekdrake.bsky.social and @ukfann00.bsky.social! It is powered by my research lab, Drake Lab!

Our #AYACSM chats are normally for advocates involved in the adolescent and young adult cancer societal movement – but anyone can join. An advocate is anyone who speaks, writes or in other ways actively supports the AYA cancer movement as a whole #AYACSM

Congratulations & thank you @ekdrake.bsky.social & #AYACM 🎉!

Thanks to all our speakers taking part in our four Friday afternoon breakout sessions of Clinical Practice, Education & Training, Leadership and management and Audit & Innovation. Inspirational sessions and something for everyone to take away into practice. #UKONS2025 #20YearsUKONS

Powerful session, delivered by Professor Alison Leary. The nursing workforce is a high knowledge intensive workforce, providing an incredible return on investment (ROI) yet this is not reflected numerically. Rather than minimising our efforts we can advocate our impact. #UKONS2025 #20Years2025
