This paper describes the nursing care experience of a newly diagnosed young female breast cancer patient who accepted the Neoadjuvant chemotherapy and target therapy. The nursing care period was from the 23th of November in 2016 to the 13th of April in 2017 with post-therapy following-up to date. The holistic nursing care was conducted by an oncology case manger to identify the nursing issues through interviews, observation and direct care. The primary finding revealed anxiety, body image disturbance, insufficient self protection etc. During the period of care, the individual, holistic and continuous care plan were established to alleviate the psychological impact and fear from the disease. The plan included encouraging patient to express her feelings, guiding her to proper emotional outlets, sharing the professional knowledge to diminish the physical discomfort from chemotherapy. Furthermore, to relieve the anxiety and worries about the treatments, the decision-making(SDM) tools were provided by medical team to help patient choose and accept appropriate treatment. Therefore, the patient accepted and treated the disease with a positive attitude by sharing her experience, adopted to the new body image after right side mastectomy and returned to a regular life. This nursing experience could provide peer nursing staff with a reference for caring for similar patients in the future.
