See time to start of treatment
You need a doctor's referral to access specialized medical treatment. Cancer treatment is always started urgently, so referrals to the hospital are processed without delay. The cancer centre monitors the implementation of cancer treatment by monitoring the time that elapses from the arrival of the patient's referral to the first treatment contact.
Western Finland Cancer Centre and Tyks involved in development project
The DigiCan Train project aims to promote access to continuing professional education and to increase the digital skills and use of e-technology by professionals working with cancer patients. The project aims to improve the skills and retraining of health professionals providing cancer care.
