Welcome
to the Riverina Cancer Care Centre from all our staff. |
The
Centre has been established to offer patients in the Greater
Murray excellence in cancer care whilst eliminating the need
to travel long distances. This allows patients in the region
to receive the best possible cancer treatment available whilst
remaining close to their home, family and friends. The Riverina
Cancer Care Centre not only makes Radiotherapy and Chemotherapy
services accessible but also acts as a catalyst to improve
medical services in the region, particularly Oncology, Neuro-surgery,
Cardiothoracic Surgery and ENT. |
The
combination of state of the art technology and highly-skilled
staff, highlights the Riverina Cancer Care Centre's leadership
in excellence in care, not only in Australia but worldwide.
Further it is a model upon which future regional cancer care
centres in Australia may be developed. |
The
Riverina Cancer Care Centre recognises the importance of education.
Consequently through affiliations with institutions such as
New South Wales University, the Centre will be utilised for
the purpose of teaching and training students and may also
be involved in student initiated trials and research. |
|
The
Riverina Cancer Care Centre has been made possible through
the formation of several cooperative partnerships. Cancer
Care Associates Pty Limited has provided the equipment and
staffing and is responsible for the running and ongoing maintenance
of the centre. The Little Company of Mary Health Care (Calvary
Hospital) has made available the land upon which the centre
has been built and the Riverina Cancer Care Centre Community
Trust has facilitated the community's fundraising efforts
to allow a centre of this magnitude and quality to be built.

|
The
NSW Cancer Council and CanAssist will provide accommodation for those patients who require
lodgings whilst on treatment. |
On
behalf of the thousands of patients to be treated at the Centre,
thank you to all those who helped make the dream of a comprehensive
cancer care centre in regional NSW a reality. |
