Abstract
Little attention has been given to the partner's long-term experience after his wife's diagnosis of breast cancer. The results of this current study highlight the opportunity for nurses to make a difference in the distress levels of patients' partners after the diagnosis of breast cancer. Long-term negative effects can be seen in partners' fears about disease recurrence and marital problems related to breast cancer.Entities:
