COMPREHENSIVE ONCOLOGY TREATMENT

Services

• Pain and Palliation

  The Pain and Palliative medicine specialist is a doctor who is an integral part of our multi-disciplinary team. The journey from diagnosis through treatment can be challenging and daunting for you - our patient and your loved ones. Our palliative specialist works along with the treating physician throughout your care - to support, prevent and ease the suffering from the effects of cancer and its treatment. The multi-disciplinary team strives to improve your quality of life, thus helping you tolerate and comply to treatment positively and have quality time with your family. This would directly improve the acceptance of treatment and hence improve the longevity of life.

• Psycho Oncology

  Feeling distressed when you or your loved one is diagnosed with cancer is often a part of the cancer journey. At times these feelings of distress continue to linger or increase and often interfere with treatment and overall quality of life. Thus, the discipline of Psycho-oncology focuses on understanding the psycho-social and psycho-biological aspects of cancer to reduce psychological distress and improve quality of life, leading to a better functional and emotional well-being. The Psycho-Oncology Services (POS) at Cytecare offers professional psychological support in the form of psychological counselling, psychotherapy and psycho-education to patients and their loved ones on the emotional challenges that may arise at all stages of the cancer journey.

• Physical Rehabilitation

  Cancer treatment can leave the patient with decreased strength and physical activity. Our physical rehabilitation specialist ensure our patients recover and regain strength and are able to perform their day-to-day activities independently.

• Onco Nutrition

  Nutrition is an important part of cancer treatment, recovery and prevention. Re-introducing the concept of balanced eating while enriching the systems with anti-oxidants, phytonutrients and vitamins for better palatability, recovery and realizing a better quality of life. The Onco-nutritionists would help you make informed choices about nutrition on evidence-based assessment, answer your nutrition-related questions, and help you to achieve and maintain good health.

• Mind Body Therapy

  The mind-body therapy at Cytecare Cancer Hospital is designed to support you and your caregivers before, during and after cancer treatment. Mind-body therapy, an integral part of holistic care, recognizes the powerful ways in which emotional, social and behavioral factors may directly affect a patient's physical health. We offer therapeutic practices and relaxation techniques in an effort to help you and your caregivers respond to a cancer treatment regimen in empowering and stress-reducing ways so you are better able to improve your health, relationships, and overall well-being.

• Patient navigators

  Cytecare’s dedicated patient navigators provide patients, their families and caregivers with highly personal services and a strong support network across their journey to recovery and aftermath. Patient navigators support cancer patients to take the timely decision that aids better outcomes, providing education and helping in breaking health system barriers. With their own personal experiences to share they form the bridge between the treatment world and the patient.
