Cancer service capacity
Both facilities offered pediatric chemotherapy and palliative care
services. Whereas MBH offered surgery for pediatric cancers needing
surgical treatment, the MCC/ often referred this category of patient to
a surgeon or a special hospital, depending on the type of surgery
required for the cancer. In addition, neither of the facilities offered
nuclear medicine nor radiotherapy service at the time of the study.
However, it’s worth noting that MBH has engaged rehabilitation works to
restore its radiotherapy services.
