🎙️ New Episode Release 📽️ Watch today: youtu.be/24wnscaPDdo In this episode, Princess Dina shares a personal story from her son’s leukemia treatment in 1998 - and how meeting an advanced practice nurse changed her understanding of cancer care forever. Princess Dina Mired is joined by Julia Challinor, Rehana Punjwani, Courtney Sullivan, and Glenn Afungchwi to spotlight the critical role nurses play in childhood cancer survival - from bedside care and family support, to early diagnosis, health system coordination, and national policy. This episode covers: 🔹 Why oncology nursing is not “general nursing” 🔹 How outdated hierarchies harm children and delay critical decisions 🔹 The reality in many LMICs: extreme nurse-to-patient ratios, limited PPE, and nurses forced into multiple roles 🔹 What urgent investments are needed: specialist education, tools, occupational safety 🔹 How community nurses can accelerate early detection and reduce treatment abandonment 🔹 Real examples of nurse-led quality improvement and infection control programs 🔹 Burnout, compassion fatigue, and the cost of invisibility 🔹 What health ministers must do now: recognition, career pathways, fair pay, and stable specialty assignments Presented by @OncoDaily --- @KHCFKHCC @UICC @CCan_org @NCDalliance @WorldSIOP @WHO @EORTC @StJude @StJudeGlobal @MSUNursing @DowUniversity @WChildCancer #GlobalHealthDialogues #PrincessDinaMired #Nusbaselinestds #PSPO #StJudeGraduateSchoolofBiomedicalScience #SIOP #ChildhoodCancer #PediatricOncology #OncologyNursing #NursesSaveLives #NursingLeadership #GlobalNursing #CancerCare #HealthcareLeadership

CoinDepo Partners with @WChildCancer🤝💛 We’re proud to announce our official partnership with World Child Cancer, launched with an initial $10,000 donation to support life-saving programs for children in Africa 🌍 While survival rates for childhood cancer exceed 80% in high-income countries, many children in low-income regions still lack access to timely treatment — even though most cases are curable. 🤗 Since 2007, World Child Cancer has supported over 50,000 children and families by strengthening healthcare systems and improving access to care. This partnership reflects our belief that crypto should do more than generate returns — it should create real-world impact. 🔗 Learn more: coindepo.com/company/articl…
