If you need support to read instructions📑, or if you are Deaf 🧏or Blind 👨🦯, you will now find it easier to visit a Covid testing centre thanks to changes we've made as a result of your feedback. Read our article here: bit.ly/3oEKFVA
What a tremendous achievement & great to hear that we've been able to support our partner organisations with this too!
A great moment today as Emma from our Oncology Dept becomes the 5,000th person to get the Covid vaccine at our centre! 😱

So proud to also continue helping friends from @SECAmbulance @kmptnhs @NHSKentCHFT & other partners. 💙

'Quality of Life' definitely says what it does on the tin & reflects the care & compassion all of our palliative care team here @MTWnhs offer.
Maybe it would also make it easier for many to talk about death & dying more easily too.
As we enter a new period of restrictions we wanted to remind you of everything we're doing to keep anyone attending Kent Oncology Centre @MTWnhs safe.

An unexplained pain that lasts three weeks or more could be a sign of cancer. It’s probably nothing serious, but finding cancer early makes it more treatable.
Your NHS is here to see you, safely. nhs.uk/cancersymptoms
