Inpatient Oncology/ Haematology services
The inpatient services, offer private rooms, some of which are hepa-filter, neutral pressure isolation rooms, especially designed to safeguard immuno-compromised patients.
Inpatient chemotherapy is administered on designated wards by nurses with a graduate diploma in cancer nursing and managed by three expert clinical nurse managers along with a clinical pharmacist.
Many nurses at ward level have undertaken further education in symptom control and pain management with a number of nurses holding a graduate diploma in palliative care. There are three additional clinical nurse managers who manage care for patients not receiving chemotherapy.
