Safe and Sustainable Services

Professor Janelle Yorke, Joint Chair in Cancer Nursing, The Christie and The University of Manchester, talks here about an innovative new service to help patients regularly monitor their symptoms at home through online questionnaires. Patient responses can be viewed directly by The Christie team to quickly address any issues they may have before, during or after treatment. This also improves care through better communication between patients and The Christie team.

You can be assured that our expert advice is based upon the best available evidence and practice. We were the first NHS organisation to be accredited a Comprehensive Cancer Centre by the Organisation of European Cancer Institutes (OECI), and we have been consistently rated outstanding by the national healthcare regulator, The CQC.
