Our ward consists of 4 beds, including specialized isolation rooms for patients with compromised immune systems. We administer specialized treatments such as chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and cell therapy, supported by a comprehensive training program and clinical practice facilitators. Our dedicated teams provide round-the-clock care, focusing on therapy administration, symptom management, sepsis treatment, and holistic patient care.
We encourage continuous professional development in a supportive and collegial environment.

As a nurse in this unit, you will be expected to:
- Administer stem cell and systemic anti-cancer infusions, bolus chemotherapy, and immunotherapy.
- Provide multiple lines of oral and intravenous medications to immunocompromised patients while monitoring vital signs and fluid balance.
- Communicate effectively with senior nursing staff and the medical team, ensuring a collaborative approach to patient care.
- Educate patients undergoing ambulatory chemotherapy, enabling them to manage their treatments at home.
We seek a nurse with strong communication skills, a passion for learning, self-motivation, and excellent time management abilities. A genuine interest in haematology and care for TYA patients is essential.
In-house training is available during a supernumerary period for all new hires, with support from clinical practice facilitators and peer mentors.
