The Cancer Centre brings together under one roof all of the cancer services which were previously provided across three locations on the hospital site. It offers oncology, clinical haematology and cancer-related chemotherapy services, inpatient and outpatient services alongside a wellbeing support service, allowing MKUH to significantly improve the quality of its cancer services to patients whilst also helping to increase capacity.
The new centre means MKUH can better support each and every cancer patient, providing most of the cancer services they need in an excellent environment. It will provide a dedicated space offering treatment and a wide range of information and support services to anyone affected by cancer, all within a comfortable and welcoming environment that is also appropriate for patients’ families.
Please note that all appointments scheduled to be held in the Macmillan Unit from Monday onwards will instead be held in the Cancer Centre.
Facilities include:
- Outpatient consultation rooms, procedure rooms and a specialist treatment rooms.
- A 24-bed inpatient ward (16 single en-suite rooms) including two two-bed bays and a four-bed assessment bay.
- Chemotherapy Suite.
- Irene Crosswell Macmillan Wellbeing Lounge.
- Holistic support and group therapy wellbeing rooms.
- 11 clinic rooms.
- Quiet rooms and family visiting rooms, a spacious and uplifting environment with beautiful landscaped gardens and new artwork.
