They also both chaired other sessions at the conference.
Sue’s poster ‘what works in smoking cessation in secondary care? A pilot study’ was voted poster of the day by conference delegates, and has led to an invitation to submit a paper for publication in the European Journal of Oncology Nursing.

Sue Jones has recently also presented a poster entitled ‘Introducing an end of life discharge sister post into an acute hospital’ at the Ninth Palliative Care Conference at the Sage, Gateshead. This poster is also being displayed at the NHS North East’s ‘Striving for Excellence’ conference in May 2012 .
