Cancer services

Our hospitals

Our hospitals in Grimsby, Scunthorpe and Goole provide services to a population of more than 450,000 people across North and North East Lincolnshire, East Riding of Yorkshire, East and West Lindsey.

What we provide at our hospitals

We provide day case chemotherapy and advanced nurse practitioner clinics at our Scunthorpe hospital.

Our oncology service at Grimsby hospital is based with the Amethyst Unit providing a dedicated inpatient, day case and outpatient clinic facility. The unit offers a seamless and personalised service to patients using multi-disciplinary expertise, which includes provision of an acute oncology service.

Consultant medical care for cancer patients is provided by visiting consultant oncologists from Hull’s Queen’s Cancer Centre and Castle Hill Hospital in close collaboration with clinical nurse specialists, chemotherapy nurses and a Macmillan Advanced Nurse practitioner team.

Our oncology department is part of the North East Yorkshire and Humber Clinical Alliance, and works in close collaboration with the cancer centre based at Queens Cancer Centre Hull.
