What to Expect
At Windom Area Health, we use a team-based approach to provide chemotherapy patients with the best possible care. When a care plan is determined, patients receive their first treatment at their oncologist's center. Subsequent treatments can continue right here in Windom.
A trained chemotherapy nurse will provide individualized care at the treatment appointment. They work closely with a pharmacist, the patient's primary care provider, and their referring oncologist to help ensure a smooth treatment journey.
Why receive Chemotherapy at Windom Area Health
Often, the burden of traveling for cancer care can cause overwhelm and stress that hinder positive treatment options. Chemotherapy that's offered close to home, often from familiar faces, can provide a greater sense of calm and enhance health outcomes. Centralized care at one local facility also results in more fully integrated coordination of care between services and providers.
If you have questions about chemo services, call Jen Zajic, Chemotherapy Coordinator, at 507-831-0699.
