Sonja Koch

Since 2005 I have enjoyed working as an oncology nurse at the Netherlands Cancer Institute. Since 2014, as a differentiated palliative care nurse, I have been part of the Palliative Care Team (formerly Supportive Care Team). For me, the person behind the (oncological) disease comes first.

What makes living with a disease that can no longer be cured that one can usually keep it up so well in all areas? And how can our team help you and the people around you to continue to do this to the best of our ability? With a lot of respect and passion for good care, I would like to connect with you as a person. In doing so, I keep psychosocial and medical-nursing aspects in mind.
