Nursing Community Gathering – July 2026

Date: July 9, 2026 | 3:00 PM

 

 

The work oncology nurses do before a patient’s first chemotherapy cycle matters just as much as the day treatment begins.

At this month’s Nursing Community Gathering, Debra Shapert, MSN, RN, OCN, will share how a standardized Cycle 1 Day 1 (C1D1) nursing chart check can improve chemotherapy readiness, strengthen communication across the care team, and support safer treatment starts.

We’ll discuss:

  • The role of the standardized C1D1 nursing chart check in promoting safe, timely, and accurate initiation of chemotherapy.
  • Critical elements of chemotherapy readiness verified during the C1D1 chart check, including orders, labs, diagnostics, authorization, patient education, and pharmacy preparation.
  • How proactive nursing verification prior to Cycle 1 Day 1 reduces medication safety risks, treatment delays, and workflow disruptions.
  • Applying C1D1 chart check framework to oncology practice to support interdisciplinary coordination and compliance with national safety standards.
