Chemotherapy is prescribed for the treatment of different kinds of cancer and is commonly administered intravenously. The hematologist-oncologist (doctor who specializes in cancer and blood disease) is the person who decides the chemotherapy regime that the patient needs and whether the patient may receive it in the comfort of the home. Advanced has a team of oncological nurses and chemotherapy specialists who administer this care. Studies show that administering chemotherapy at home is a safe alternative and this allows the patient to be more relaxed with his or her environment, benefit from individualized care, and maintain quality of life, among other things.
