The Haematology department provides a comprehensive clinical and laboratory service for patients across East Kent. The teams provide nineteen subspecialised outpatient clinics per week, delivered over three sites plus telephone consultations. Haematology and Haemophilia inpatient beds are centralised at Kent and Canterbury Hospital, with outpatient presence and chemotherapy units at the Queen Elizabeth Queen Mother, Margate) and William Harvey (Ashford) sites. The Kent Haemophilia and Thrombosis Centre is based at the Kent and Canterbury Hospital and is the Haemophilia Comprehensive Care Centre providing specialist Haemophilia Care for patients with bleeding disorders for the whole of Kent and parts of East Sussex. The specialist Haemophilia Laboratory is based within the Haemophilia Centre at the Kent and Canterbury hospital.
Haematology and Haemophilia is part of the Diagnostics, Buckland and Cancer Care group. The Trust faced a number of challenges in the delivery of cancer access standards. The creation of a Cancer Services Care Group with a dedicated leadership team has enabled the Trust to focus on ensuring it not only achieves these standards, but develops a strategy to enable it to deliver excellent services to the populations it serves. This approach has already led to significant improvement in achievement of the cancer standards. The care group continues to develop its strategies to ensure this progress continues.
