The Breast Course 4 Nurses

The Breast course 4 Nurses was started in 2012 and is registered as a Public Benefit Organisation and Non Profit Organisation. It was founded by Dr Jenny Edge, a General Surgeon in Cape Town who has a major interest in the treatment of diseases of the breast.

The overriding goal is to promote management of breast cancer by grass roots education of nurses in the field of screening and treatment of breast disease.

The course provides educational facilities for nurses in both rural and urban settings. Courses are between 2 and 4 days in duration and have taken place mainly in South Africa but also in neighbouring countries. The aim is to increase opportunities for the identification of breast cancer at an early stage by education of nursing staff in the field, as well as the setting up of referral pathways for treatment.
