Role of APPs in Pediatric Head & Neck Cancer
Behind every complex pediatric cancer patient is a care team, and advanced practice providers are the key to keeping every moving piece connected. On this episode of BackTable ENT & Allergy, host Dr. Sara Helmig welcomes St. Jude APPs Sara Meehan (pediatric solid tumor oncology nurse practitioner) and Megan Murphy (ENT family nurse practitioner) to discuss the critical role APPs play across the full continuum of care. They walk through clinical responsibilities from pre-op to follow-up, the logistics of organizing multidisciplinary tumor boards, and the importance of care coordination across surgery, oncology, endocrinology, rehab, nutrition, and beyond.
