Career and Education Framework for specialist nurses working in the field of long-term follow-up and late effects for children and young people after cancer V2.0

Children’s Cancer and Leukaemia (CCLG) – April 2024

An important resource designed to support nurses who work in the field of long-term follow-up and late effects for children and young people after cancer has been updated and expanded.

Experts from the Children’s Cancer and Leukaemia (CCLG)/Teenagers and Young Adults with Cancer (TYAC) working group, Children’s After Cure Nurses (CANUK), have published the second edition ‘Career and Education Framework for specialist nurses working in the field of long-term follow-up and late effects for children and young people after cancer’.

This work represents a significant review of competencies and career progression for highly specialised nurses working in this field. It builds on original work that was developed by the National Cancer Survivorship Initiative in 2011 and has been brought up to date with current practice in the field of late effects and long-term follow-up (LTFU).
