Its construction is the further sublimation of tumor treatment concept, harmonious relationship between doctors and patients, and humanistic care. This article shares the construction experience of the platform daytime chemotherapy center from the definition, orientation, operation mechanism, ward configuration, drug access, patient access and management mode, and puts forward suggestions that the promotion of the platform daytime chemotherapy center should be carried out from the aspects of policy support, hospital vigorously promoting and self-management breakthrough.
The number of new cancer cases in China has been increasing year by year, but with the continuous innovation of medical technology, cancer is gradually becoming a chronic disease. The contradiction between the increasingly large tumor patient population and limited medical resources is becoming more prominent, so the mode of daytime chemotherapy has been widely promoted. This article is based on the operational practice of the “one-stop” daytime chemotherapy center at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine. It shares experiences in management mode and system construction (such as spatial layout, personnel structure, operation process, emergency process, job responsibilities, quantitative indicators), showcases the construction achievements of the “one-stop” daytime chemotherapy center, and proposes suggestions for improving the centralized daytime chemotherapy mode.
