Abstract

Introduction: Breast cancer is now one of the leading causes of death and morbidity worldwide, including in Indo- nesia. Every health care professional and community member should pay close attention to these issues. Women diagnosed with breast cancer will experience physical, psychological, and social issues. Methods: This study looked into breast cancer patients’ experiences with holistic nursing care. The complexity of the difficulties confronting breast cancer patients will influence their experiences and perceptions, necessitating a holistic approach to nursing services. A qualitative exploratory, descriptive method was adopted in the investigation. During data collection, fifteen participants were recruited and interviewed. Focus Group Discussion (FGD) was utilized to collect data. Result: The study’s findings provide five significant themes: (1) knowledge and understanding of breast cancer; (2) experiences felt at the beginning of breast cancer complaints; (3) non-health breast cancer treatment; (4) perception of nursing services received by breast cancer patients; (5) facts and holistic needs during and beyond treatment; and


(6) patients’ expectations of nursing services to help their needs. Conclusion: The findings provide information on how breast cancer patients understand the examination procedure, accept a diagnosis, and proceed to treatments.
