The Lexington Clinic Cancer Centers’ staff includes an oncology clinical nurse specialist.
Blood work to monitor blood cell levels is a routine component of cancer care. Patients can visit the Center’s convenient laboratory as directed by the physician. Patients also often require X-rays to evaluate treatment progress. X-rays are processed and forwarded quickly to the physician for assessment, eliminating delays in this vital information.
Dedicated as a memorial to local television journalist John Lindgren, the John E. Lindgren Patient and Family Resource Room provides a wealth of cancer-related educational resources for oncology patients and their families, medical staff, and the community. The Resource Room, which is open weekdays from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., includes a Touch Screen “Cancer Help Network” computer for up-to-date cancer information, dedicated internet accessible computer for cancer information direct links, videotape library for viewing at home or in the room and a book library. Materials are purchased using donations from the community.
The center’s inviting state-of-the-art conference/meeting room features full audio and video technologies and a fully equipped kitchen for hosting patient programs, support groups and educational activities.
