Scenario: You are assigned to a clinical rotation in an outpatient chemotherapy center. You are working with a nurse who will administer chemotherapy to a group of patients that day. One of your assigned patients is a 25-year-old man who has been diagnosed with leukemia. He has the following questions:
"Why do they keep changing my medication? It seems like every time I come back to the doctor after a round of chemo has ended, they change what they give me." How would you best respond?
"What are the side effects of chemotherapy?" How would you respond?
