Abstract

The care practices in cancer control in the Health Care Network (RAS) add practices aimed at health promotion, primary prevention, early detection, screening, timely treatment and palliative care. When considering the practice of nurses in the Health Care Network (RAS), the present study aims to identify, in scientific production, nursing care practices aimed at controlling cancer in RAS. Integrative review in LILACS databases; BDENF; and MEDLINE, using the descriptors: Continuity of Patient Care; Neoplasia; Palliative Care and Oncology Nursing, from 2014 to 2020. The results showed three categories of care practices: Health guidance; Nursing Consultation and Technical Procedures. The main practice observed was health guidance, followed by nursing consultation, aimed at health promotion and user monitoring; and technical procedures. It is noteworthy, the incipience of articles focused on the practice of nurses in cancer control in primary care, with little reflection on the scientific evidence in that field of care.
