Does Forbes have an Oncology unit for Chemo?
Or will you need to travel to Orange
Sue Kuter is the Orange Base Hospital BC Nurse
I've been a McGrath Breast Care Nurse since 2011, a registered nurse since 1982 and I also have a Graduate Diploma in Breast Cancer Nursing.
The most important thing I do for my patients is ensure they are fully informed so they can be empowered to make decisions about their health and treatment.
Every day I make a difference by following my patients through all aspects of their treatment through breast cancer. Exercise is an important part of the treatment plan for women with breast cancer these days. I have put together a calendar of weekly exercise classes for women who have had a diagnosis of breast cancer to attend and I also attend these classes. The classes provide support, companionship, exercise and an opportunity to build on their confidence.
Parkes is the next closest BC NURSE
I've been a McGrath Breast Care Nurse since 2011, a registered nurse since 1989 and I also have a Masters in Breast Cancer Nursing.
The most important thing I do for my patients is to help to breakdown treatment options, and make sure they are aware of the services available.
Every day I make a difference by providing education and support in a compassionate manner during a time of turmoil. Medical interventions are sometimes limited in a rural community, but through the McGrath Foundation, I can fulfill this need and hopefully reduce the burden of isolation felt by many.
Can you access Community Transport?
Orange has a lodge attached to the hospital call Sue and ask her about it ...
