Abstract
This paper describes a framework for nursing research in cancer care, developed by a group of British nurses who met under the auspices of the Cancer Research Campaign, a British charity, in May 1992. In developing the framework the great potential for nursing research to contribute to cancer care was recognized, but was felt to be under-exploited because of the constraints that exist for nurses wishing to undertake research. The framework identifies the characteristic features of nursing research; highlights key areas for focus for such research; suggests mechanisms for building programmes of research; and strategies for creating milieux conducive to the development of cancer nursing research and nurse researchers.Keywords
