New Contact for Cancer Patients
Many more people are surviving cancer and the MacMillan organisation wish to support nurses in general practice.
Here at Manor, we have taken up this opportunity and our Practice Nurse Claire has now completed the Cancer Care Course for Practice Nurses run by MacMillan.
This means she is now able to offer increased support to:
- Patients with a new diagnosis of Cancer
- Patients who have completed their treatment
Please telephone the surgery or ask at reception to book an appointment with Claire.
