Patients having radiotherapy to their head, neck and upper chest, may need help keeping still during their radiotherapy treatment. Our mould room team make customised immobilisation devices for our patients to keep them in the correct position for their radiotherapy treatments.
Research is an important part of our service. Radiotherapy conducts a number of clinical trials which will hopefully improve outcomes for our patients. Our clinical trials team manage the radiotherapy clinical trial portfolio. #AHPsDay2020 #LeedsAHPs @LeedsHospitals @SCoRMembers

The bottles materialised after a former patient gave feedback on the plastic waste of drinking 3 cups of water to prepare for pelvic radiotherapy treatment and the uncertainty on the volume each contains. Well Done Kelly - we are all v.proud of you and all that you have achieved.

Well done to our @kellypicken for being awarded a @LeedsHospitals Time to Shine award โญ๏ธKelly worked with a patient to introduce water bottles for our radiotherapy patients that need to drink before their treatment. This resulted in reducing the number of cups we use in a yearโญ๏ธ
Huge congrats to Kelly Picken from our Radiotherapy Service for winning the Improving Patient Experience Award at the T2S awards for introducing water bottles for patients. Thanks to this initiative a yearly total of 100,000 disposable cups have been replaced with 1500 bottles!
