Few nurses will become competent and authorised to practice in an advanced and/or extended role in cancer control. These nurses will build on the Specialist Cancer Nurse capabilities through additional experience and education at the Masters level or equivalent.

The practice of nurses in this group reflects a more advanced application of the competency standards for the specialist nurse.  For nurse practitioners in cancer control, their practice reflects a cancer control application of the Nurse Practitioner competency standards developed by the Australian Nursing and Midwifery Council.

Resources for the nurse practitioner include:

  • ANMC competency standards for nurse practitioners - a cancer control application
  • Professional development portfolio for nurse practitioners - a cancer control application
