I was receiving paclitaxel & carboplatin. Administering these took a full day.
Three main items made this a time a very special experience. I looked forward to my chemotherapy days.
First, the staff were relaxed, really pleasant & very attentive. They always knew what to do whatever the circumstance. This was all very reassuring.
The layout of the chemotherapy room helped: extremely comfortable chairs which could be laid back or adjusted to raise feet: the layout allowed for conversations with others having chemotherapy. This was very helpful for me as I learnt a lot and have made new friends.
The room included coffee/tea/water making facilities and its own bathroom.
Lunch was always provided.
