Oncology patients may find the resources/information available on the following page very useful: Support Services / Available Resources.
There are some general health information books about diet, financial arrangements etc. which we also have available and which you may find useful.
Free prescriptions
Anyone with cancer can apply for a medical exemption certificate which qualifies them for free prescriptions for five years. This can be extended if you still meet the criteria. Ask your GP, Pharmacy or medical team at the hospital who will be able to provide the application form for you to complete, this will need to be signed by your Doctor. For more information visit: Who can get free prescriptions - NHS (www.nhs.uk).
Free parking
The hospital offers free parking for Oncology and Haematology appointments. Please speak to a member of the Oncology Team or the Pembroke Unit for information on how to claim free parking.
