Dedicated Cancer Care Professionals

Chemotherapy nurses are a vital part of your cancer care team and work closely with the medical oncologists, radiation oncologists and other staff. Our nurses spend hours and sometimes entire days with patients receiving treatment, and often form a special bond with patients during that time. In many cases, chemotherapy nurses take away important lessons from the patients who are in their care.

 

I feel blessed to be able to share this time with those patients. They share so much and I learn so much about living. They teach us things – like how precious life can be and to be thankful for the little things.”
