For professionals
Our physiotherapists work within the field of Oncology providing
both an in-patient and out-patient service. There are 2 wards where
patients are seen as in-patients and our physiotherapy department
and oncology day beds for outpatients.

work closely with our shared Care Centres in the South West:

Treatment
Each child will present very differently within the oncology
field so their treatment will be tailored to their individual
needs. We work closely with community teams from a wide area to
ensure the child's treatment and care is continued when they are
discharged.
