On this CANCER BUZZ podcast, we focus on the mental and emotional toll the pandemic continues to have on cancer care professionals who acknowledge that we’re not on the other side of the pandemic—while much of the public experiences a “summer of joy” due to rising vaccination rates. This week’s guest is Krista Nelson, MSW, LCSW, OSW-C, FAOSW, oncology social worker and ACCC President.
