The Southampton Oncology Centre is based at the SGH for Medical Oncology, IP Clinical Oncology and Malignant Haematology. Radiotherapy services are provided at both the new centre at the SGH site and at the RSH Radiotherapy Department as previously. The Centre which services a population of 1.75 million, aims to provide expert specialist care to both cure patients whenever possible and enhance quality of life. The Centre provides a broad based non-surgical oncology service for people living in Hampshire, Wiltshire, the Channel Islands and the Isle of Wight. Patients with all types of cancer are accepted for treatment and the Centre offers a regional and supra-regional service throughout its combined and peripheral clinics. Specialist palliative care is provided by Countess Mountbatten House, based at Moorgreen Hospital, West End, Southampton. The Manor House provides a hostel facility for those patients who live too far to travel to the Southampton Oncology Centre for Radiotherapy.
