Infusion Services
The Infusion Suite at Norris Cotton Cancer Center is special in many ways. It was designed by patients in collaboration with the building architect and local artists to create a patient friendly atmosphere with natural lighting, strained glass windows and artwork. Amenities available in the suite include a personal television with headphones, snacks, beverages, an abundance of reading material, games and puzzles.
Infusion services are for patients who need fluids, including chemotherapy and blood and blood products, administered into their bloodstream. The nursing staff works in collaboration with each patient’s provider to ensure the patient’s needs are met. The nursing staff provides detailed instructions—written and verbal—to patients and their families so they can manage at home after leaving the infusion suite.
