DOIAbstract
One in two people in the UK born after 1960 will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime (Cancer Research UK, 2018). With such high levels of prevalence, all nurses, regardless of specialty, workplace setting or levels of experience, will be caring for people affected by cancer. This mirrors pre-registration nursing students' experiences during their clinical placements as they are likely to be caring for people affected by cancer in most clinical placement settings. For some students this will be in a specialist cancer environment but, for many, they will be encountering patients affected by cancer in non-cancer specialist services
