Cancer Center at Froedtert West Bend Hospital

The Commission on Cancer, a quality program of the American College of Surgeons, has named Froedtert West Bend Hospital a recipient of the 2017 year-end Commission on Cancer Outstanding Achievement Award.

The 21,000-square-foot Cancer Center at Froedtert West Bend Hospital offers a calming, healing environment that serves the unique needs of cancer patients for privacy, specialty treatment, individualized, coordinated care, convenience and compassion.

The cancer center features advanced technology and important services for our cancer patients.

• Pharmacy access: Cancer patients can see their doctor and get their chemotherapy treatment on the same day with an on-campus pharmacy where cancer drugs are prepared
   
• Infusion options: A large common room with six recliners has windows with a view of the prairie for patients receiving chemotherapy. Patients who would like more privacy may choose a semi-private or private infusion suite, which allows them to rest quietly or have family by their side.
   
• Patient coordinator: The coordinator gathers records and coordinates initial appointments for patient convenience and efficiency.
   
• Small Stones Wellness Center: Located in the lobby of the Cancer Center at Froedtert West Bend Hospital, Small Stones supports the healing process by helping cancer patients enhance their appearance, promoting relaxation and boosting self-esteem.
   
• Cancer Survivors Clinic: The clinic supports cancer patients through treatment into life after cancer.
