Rotation Title
Hematology/Oncology - UNC McCreary
Rotation Description:
The hematology/oncology rotation at the UNC McCreary Cancer Center will expose residents to a breadth of oncology populations. This community-based rural clinic provides care to local patients with any cancer etiology, working in tandem with additional on-site resources, including an infusion clinic and radiation oncology department. The resident will collaborate with the multi-disciplinary team to assist with selecting the most appropriate individualized therapies based on the patient’s cancer characteristics. Residents will gain experience by participating in a pharmacist-led oral chemotherapy program, and with providing patient education. Residents will assist with symptom management, including pain, nausea/vomiting, and other conditions.
