Filling the gaps to empower regional centres to manage myelodysplastic syndrome and acute myeloid leukaemia leading to wider cancer healthcare delivery and access to clinical trials
Limitations in management of AML/MDS patients exist in regional centres. We utilised focused clinical fellows in a partnership between Latrobe Regional Health and Alfred Health in Victoria to improve treatment options for these patients. Moreover, we demonstrate future areas of focus, which will further enable rural and regional healthcare providers to bridge the gap in the care of patients with haematological malignancies.
