Pastoral Care
To assist with emotional support at the hospital.
Follow on Treatment
A number of patients require follow on treatment after their surgery. Gynae/oncology patients often require chemotherapy, radiotherapy or a combination of both. Staff are very aware of the emotional as well as the physical trauma that our patients encounter and the staff are very qualified in organising their care in a compassionate and caring manner.
