The new Hematology Oncology Outpatient Clinic and Infusion Center, which opened in May 2021, is located adjacent to the inpatient hematology oncology unit. The all-new space comprises 10,880 square feet, and features 16 spacious exam rooms dedicated for hematology oncology services.
Connected to the clinic, an all-new infusion center houses nine open infusion bays along with two private infusion rooms for those children who are severely immunocompromised or require isolation. The Infusion Center is designed to provide accessible and convenient outpatient care for patients receiving chemotherapy, transfusions and infusions.
The Infusion Center provides quiet, comfortable treatment areas that allow our patients to be monitored closely by a registered nurse. Televisions, Wi-Fi, coloring books and other games are available for patients, in addition to support from our Child Life Specialists. Recliner chairs are used to improve the comfort of the patients during their time spent receiving treatment, along with a comfortable space for their family members.
