Nurse Specialists

Pediatric Hematology and Oncology Nursing Specialists provide a vital link for patients and their families.  They provide support, education and coordinate the very complex therapy necessary to treat children with hematology disorders and cancer.  Each of our nurses work with a specific group of patients as a team with the physician. All of the nursing positions are funded by The Four Diamonds Fund.
