Clinical Care
ImageThe Eppley Patient Care Center and Clinic offers primary treatment, second opinions, investigational drug studies and transplant services.
The Patient Care Center and Clinic at UNMC is open and provides cancer treatment for patients 24 hours a day.

 

Among the many services offered by the clinic are chemotherapy, blood product administration, intravenous antibiotics and evaluation of urgent problems when the need arises.

Each of the more than 30 physicians at the treatment center and clinic are partnered with specially educated R.N.s who provide assistance of all types to the patients.

The clinic offers individualized instruction as needed on chemotherapy treatments, cancer and other related diseases. We also schedule classes for various patient care topics.

Experimental therapies may be offered at the UNMC Eppley Cancer Center that may not be available at other institutions.

Oncologists also participate in many continuing studies during drug development and testing which assures the patient the most up-to-date treatment available.

The unique collaboration between oncologists and basic researchers allow discoveries made in the laboratories to be taken directly to the patient. For more information on Patient Care at The Nebraska Medical Center, click here>.
