Introduction: Patient Initiated Follow Up (PIFU) is well established in this regional cancer centre, it allows patients to contact a cancer specialist team based on symptoms and individual circumstances. Patients are empowered to manage follow-up remotely, undertaking cancer surveillance tests and accessing results through the digital system MyMedicalRecord (MyMR).

Introduction: The diagnosis of carcinoid heart disease (CHD) is often made late and requires a highly experienced team to manage multiple issues, such as heart failure, carcinoid symptoms and poor nutrition. Prior to December 2018 NET (Neuroendocrine Tumor) and cardiac teams were working in isolation, this resulted in missed opportunities for intervention and comprehensive review. It was evident we needed to build closer collaborations with our cardiac colleagues, to ensure timely assessment, optimisation of symptoms and improve patients’ overall experience. The Clinical Nurse Specialists (CNSs) were fundamental in establishing a twice monthly CHD/NET multidisciplinary team meeting and monthly joint NET/CHD clinic. Patients were kept informed at each stage by the CNS, either during telephone consultation, ward visit or at clinic appointments.

#3400 Addressing professional development needs in neuroendocrine cancer nursing
Introduction: Adult Neuroendocrine Cancer nursing is a highly specialised field where expertise in both knowledge and appropriate skills can make a significant contribution - especially in the promotion and maintenance of high standards of practice, education for the patient and the application of safe evidence-based knowledge and skills the patient requires when diagnosed with a rare disease.

#3276 Increasing compliance of an oral oncolytic through a novel clinical nurse educator model
Introduction: A patient education platform to help navigate medication coordination and symptom management leads to improved adherence and effective patient-HCP communication. Historically, cancer patients have lower rates of oral therapy adherence (~16%) versus patients receiving infusion therapy.

Introduction: The number of people living with cancer in the UK continues to rise with increased demands on specialist cancer care services. NET incidence and prevalence increases alongside this demand. NETs remain a rare cancer with specialist needs. The clinical nurse specialist (CNS) is ideally placed to support these patients. Oncology clinics are increasingly pressured, the need to think of innovative ways of reducing strain whilst maintaining and enhancing the patients experience is important. To address this we set up a nurse-led SACT NMP clinic alongside the oncology clinic to improve patient experience and reduce oncologist clinic review.
