The European Blood and Marrow Transplantation Textbook for Nurses: Under the Auspices of Ebmt (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9783031233937)

Michelle Kenyon works as the Consultant Nurse (BMT) at King's College Hospital London. She has worked for more than 30 years in the field of Haemato-oncology and Stem Cell Transplantation. Her interest in improving the patient experience of Haematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HSCT) led her to write "The Seven Steps", a patient information book (2002) and subsequently the "Next Steps" (2012). Around 50,000 copies of these titles have been distributed, and are used as the basis of informed consent for transplant recipients throughout the UK.

She studied her BSc in Cancer Nursing and MSc in Advancing Cancer Nursing Practice at King's College London, and undertook an empirical research study exploring the use of Life-coaching in Stem Cell Transplant Survivors for her dissertation. She supports patients throughout their post-transplant recovery and has a particular interest in survivorship issues and the early and late effects of treatment with the focus of her PhD on interventions that impact on patient and family experience. She launched the HSCT long-term follow-up clinic at King's College Hospital in 2014 and has found the patient insights of life after transplant inspiring and the overall experience highly rewarding. She is the current President of the EBMT Nurses Group.
