Supportive Care Services
Supportive care services are essential components of treatment at our center, aimed at enhancing patient well-being throughout the treatment process.
Multidisciplinary Care Team
At HBMTC, patients receive comprehensive care from a dedicated team of experts. Our multidisciplinary team includes experienced physicians, skilled nurses, a clinical pharmacist, a dietitian, and a social worker who collaborate to address each patient's unique needs.
Together, they provide personalized support throughout the treatment journey, ensuring that every aspect of care - medical, nutritional, and emotional - is carefully managed.
Nutritional Support
Our registered clinical dietitian works closely with families to create personalized nutrition plans that support recovery both before and after treatment.
We carefully monitor nutritional needs throughout the treatment process, ensuring that each patient receives the tailored support necessary for optimal healing and well-being.
Additionally, we provide resources for families to support nutritional care at home, including meal planning assistance and dietary guidance.
Psychosocial Support Services
We provide emotional support to patients and their families, helping them cope with the psychological challenges of treatment. This includes counseling sessions, stress management guidance, and access to supportive resources.
Our support services also include connecting families with support groups and educational resources to help navigate the emotional aspects of treatment and recovery.
Infection Prevention and Management
Because many patients undergoing chemotherapy or BMT are immunocompromised, strict infection control measures are followed. This involves hygiene education, protective practices, and immediate care for any signs of infection.
We provide comprehensive education to patients and families about preventive measures and maintain a safe environment throughout the treatment process.
Pain Management and Palliative Care
Pain management is an essential part of our care, aiming to ease discomfort caused by treatment side effects. We address issues such as mouth sores, nausea, and gastrointestinal irritation to create a more comfortable healing process.
Our approach includes both pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions tailored to each patient's needs.
Accommodation Support
Our team helps families arrange suitable accommodations during their stay, offering details on nearby lodging and available services. These efforts ensure patients and loved ones experience a supportive and comfortable environment.
We maintain partnerships with nearby hotels and can assist with long-term housing options for families who need to stay extended periods during treatment.
Education and Family Resources
We provide patients and families with educational resources about their diagnosis, treatment plans, and supportive care services. This knowledge empowers them to make informed choices and engage actively in their care journey.
Our resource center features materials in multiple languages and formats to accommodate diverse learning preferences and needs.
Long-Term Follow-Up Programs
After treatment ends, patients continue receiving follow-up care to monitor recovery and address any long-term effects. This ongoing support ensures seamless care, peace of mind, and guidance throughout the healing journey.
Our follow-up programs include regular health assessments, survivorship care plans, and coordination with local healthcare providers.
Transportation Assistance
Transportation is often a challenge, so we provide shuttle buses and other travel services to ease the burden. These options help patients and families reach the center safely, reliably, and with less stress.
We offer scheduled transportation services for regular treatment appointments and can assist with special arrangements as needed.
Translation Services
To support clear communication, we offer professional translation services for patients and families who do not speak Arabic. This ensures they can fully understand their care and interact effectively with our healthcare team.
Our translation services include both in-person interpretation and written translation of important materials in multiple languages.
