Exploring the new Cancer Center

Thursday, May 9, 2019 |

The Bayhealth Cancer Center is located on the garden level of the Outpatient Center directly adjacent to the hospital. The new facility consolidates all healthcare providers that specialize in cancer into one place. This enables Bayhealth’s cancer care team of medical and radiation oncologists, surgeons, nurses, radiation therapists, social workers, and others to provide the best care and patient experience in a convenient location. Here are some other ways the new Bayhealth Cancer Center, Sussex Campus is built around you.

Larger space

The new Cancer Center is 20,000 square feet.

More exam rooms & chemotherapy bays
There are 11 exam rooms and 14 chemotherapy bays, including twice as many private infusion bays for chemotherapy treatments.

Flexible areas

The treatment areas allow additional space for family members to sit while their loved ones receive treatment. Sliding glass panels separate infusion bays, giving patients the option to converse with fellow patients when opened or sit privately when closed.

Services & support

Services available at the Cancer Center include chemotherapy, radiation therapy and immunotherapy. For radiation therapy, a linear accelerator will offer patients in the southern region state-of-the-art image guidance, stereotactic radiation therapy and IMRT (intensity-modulated radiation therapy).

The Cancer Center also provides multidisciplinary conferences and nurse navigation support, as well as programs for supportive care, clinical research, genetic counseling, and survivorship.
