How it usually works
- Assessment and planThe team reviews your diagnosis, past treatment and goals and proposes a plan.
- Starting treatmentTreatment begins as sessions, cycles or ongoing medicines.
- MonitoringTests and scans measure how treatment is working and look for side effects.
- Adjusting the planDoses, timings or approach are changed as needed.
- Continuing near homeWhere possible, ongoing treatment is handed to a doctor near you with clear written instructions.
Recovery and follow-up
- Progress is gradual and goal-based.
- A home programme is taught to continue after returning.
Every procedure carries risks, and they differ from person to person. Ask your doctor to explain the risks that apply to you before you decide.
