Patients often struggle to retain the amount of new information received in education sessions which can lead to poor retention, repetitive questions, and limited engagement in their care. We have developed short, animated videos that support the patient and their carers to understand the treatment journey. These videos complement existing education practices, providing consistent bite-size information.
Videos are available for the following treatments in English and in other languages including Italian, Greek, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, and Vietnamese.
Chemotherapy
- P-chemotherapy patient education – inpatient setting (e.g. haematology unit)
- Pre-chemotherapy patient education – ambulatory setting (e.g. Chemotherapy Day Unit (CDU) and Symptom and Urgent Review Clinic)
- Chemotherapy discharge education (e.g. haematology unit or CDU).

- Bone marrow transplant discharge education.
