The Avon Haematology Unit (AHU) consists of an inpatient area
(Ward D703 - was ward 62) and a day area.
The staff on AHU care for patients with malignant and
non- malignant haematological conditions. These include leukaemia,
lymphoma, sickle-cell disease, thalassamia and myeloproliferative
disorders.
The day unit and the ward provide a variety of treatments such
as chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and blood product support, including
transfusions and stem cell
transplantation. We have close links with the Bone
Marrow Transplantation unit based at Bristol Royal Hospital for
Children and the Apheresis Unit at BHOC.
Patients can refer themselves to the Unit if they are
experiencing any problems or difficulties. There are a number of
clinical nurse specialists and haemophilia nurse specialists who
can offer advice and support.
