Appointment with the Pivot Nurse

The pivot nurse assesses the patient’s health resources and needs, as well as those of their relatives if necessary.

• She informs them about the different aspects of the illness, the treatments and their consequences, and the short-, medium-, and long-term follow-up.
• She guides the patient in organizing care and available services, directing them to other healthcare professionals or to a community resource that may better meet their needs.
• She provides support to the patient and their relatives.
• She ensures coordination and continuity of care among all care providers.
