With the support of local community groups and organizations, the Regional
Cancer Center at Mary Washington Healthcare can offer port flushes and
lab draws from children with ports, eliminating the need for families
to have to travel hours away for these routine services.
Current pediatric oncology services include:
Lab draws
Port flushes (ports must already be in place)
Children with cancer and other chronic diseases often require blood testing
on a regular basis, sometimes several times per week. Having this service
available locally allows parents to enjoy more valuable time with their
child and less time on the road.
To access this service, the child’s pediatrician that has privileges
at Mary Washington Hospital must fax written orders to
540-741-0718.
