Nice | Suspected cancer in adults

This is a huge guideline from NICE on diagnosing cancer, far too big to summarise easily in a blog. I have done a separate post for diagnosing cancer in children.

In reality the 2 week wait referrals will be directed by what is on the referral form, so I have ignored those bits of the guideline.

There is also a lot of information about when we should be referring to direct access services and when we should be doing simple blood tests. I would strongly encourage you to invest half an hour in skim-reading it.

"As a newly-qualified CCT and a GP moving to a new region post-CCT, I found LocumDeck and the NASGP to be very helpful. LocumDeck has been useful: Ali Lewis helped me to set myself up, get in touch with practices and book sessions, and also helped me chase payments. The NASGP itself, providing peer support and advice, has also been very good. I would certainly encourage my colleagues to join."
