Outpatient Hematology Oncology Infusion Suite

Our infusion suite provides outpatient chemotherapy and biologic response modifiers to a wide range of adult oncology patients. In addition we offer supportive care such as:

• Antibiotic therapy
• Blood transfusions

Other medications that enhance pain and symptom control in both oncology and non-oncology patients As a hematology oncology infusion suite, we provide care to patients undergoing bone marrow transplantation. Beyond infusions, nurses have the opportunity to perform outpatient bone marrow biopsies.

Unit Culture

We use a collaborative approach to patient care and have close working relationships with the medical care team, including physicians and nurse practitioners. The suite enjoys the support of a dedicated hematology/ oncology pharmacist, dietician, social worker and palliative care nurse practitioner. We also work in collaboration with the comprehensive disease management groups. A small, close-knit group with a strong team approach to patient care, we benefit from the support of a clinical nurse specialist who serves in both inpatient and outpatient units.

Nurses enjoy working our prized weekday 10-hour shifts. Our program is expanding in leaps and bounds, making the Hematology Oncology Infusion Suite a great career move.
