role of cancer care' at
Wingham :hospital.
The regional cancer
• centre and the local hospi-
tal have a long affiliation
going back to 1942, noted
Bill Woodley, Wingham's
director of nursing.
Throughout the years,
monthly cancer clinics
have allowed people from
the catchment area of the
Wingham hospital' and
beyond, to be seen by can-
cer specialists without
having totravel to the city.
In fact, the Wingham-
London partnership has
'seen its fair share of
'firsts,' noted Markland,.
including the first educa-
tional session for cancer
clinic' volunteers when
Wingham , workers visited
London in 1987,
Smith said the
Wingharn-London partner-
ship is a unique one in the
annuals of cancer care and
the two are in the midst of
renewing an agreement.
The tie was strength-
ened two years ago when
several Wingham physi-
cians and' nurses -- who
had been specially trained
by I:RCC staff bggan.
offering chemotherapy
treatment at,Wingham..
Woodley pointed out
that in 1997, 12 patients.
received 171 treatments..
To date this year, 21
patients have received 300
treatments and there is
potential for serving many
more,
Smith • explains
Wingham started out treat-
ing colorectal' caneer, but
staff now has been trained
to provide treatment to
those with breast cancer.
In: the future,,. the role
may expand to treat other
fortes of the disease such
as lymphoma and, lung
cancer.
Patients . appreciate
being able to take their
cancer treatments close to
home, said Keith Carson,
an emergency department
nurse at Wingham hospital
and .one of those specially
trained toadminister
chemotherapy. •
"This is something we
believe in strongly,” he
added.
People: often ate sick
following treatment and
want to return to the. .corn -
fon of their own homeas
soon as possible without
spending hourstravelling
d
to and from hospital.
For the.London special-
ists, this is what it is all
about - bringing, the caro
closer to those who need
it.
Ways to streamline the
referral process were dis-
cussed, as were ideas for
enlarging the catchment
arta for -patients served.
Also discussedwas the
issue of increasing the
numbers of nutritional and
'social workers, part of the
team that treats people
with cancer.

Currie..
A return call to a resi,

out: ,
The service has two full

around:: the . clock.' Ten
Phone lines' are set up
strictly for 9.11 .calls and
there are other lines 'avail-
able for contact with
police, fire and ambulance
or for paging emergency
workers.or volunteers.,
Reaching a busy signal
° after calling 911 would be,
extremely rare, however
Currie encourages resi-
dents to use the 911 num-
ber only in life-threatening
•• situations. '
"If there's a' danger to
themseives, or to .someone
else. If it's a barking 'dog
next door, .they should call
their own local police
number;'' said Currie.
When in doubt about the
severity of The situation;
Gurrib suggests calling •
91;1. • '
If theyy are border -line
.sittiations,don't. stand
there and think about .it --
call it, just call it."
