Özet

Kanserli hastalar ve aileleri ile ve onkologlar ve diğer yardımcı sağlık personeli arasında hastalık özelinde cereyan eden özel bir iletişim mevcuttur. Kanser hastalarının kırılgan ruh hali ile onkologların kötü sonuçların tespiti, bildirilmesi ve tedavi süreçlerinin yürütülmesindeki rolleri bir arada düşünüldüğünde onkolojik iletişimin sağlık iletişimindeki yerinin de hassas olduğu aşikardır. Bu bölüm bir genel başlık ve beş alt başlıkta ele alınmıştır. Giriş niteliğindeki genel başlıkta onkoloji ve iletişim ilişkisinden bahsedilmiş, ilk iki alt başlıkta kötü haber verme üzerinde durularak Türkiye’de kötü haberin kültürel bağlamı ele alınmıştır. Diğer başlıklarda ise onkolojik iletişimin yansımaları ve kanser tespiti iletişimi konusu işlenmiştir. Son olarak onkolojik hastalara yönelik sosyal destek ve hasta merkezli iletişim süreci irdelenmiştir.
