What to Expect
Receiving a bone-marrow transplant is a comprehensive process.
Seattle Children's provides inpatient care and some procedures for children who are patients with Seattle Cancer Care Alliance. The hospital is located at 4800 Sand Point Way NE, in northeast Seattle near the University of Washington.
As much as possible, care and treatment is provided for your child at the Seattle Cancer Care Alliance clinic. This way, patients stay in the comfort of their home setting. The staff at SCCA will help you manage the unique aspects of your child's treatment plan. However, patients may develop symptoms that require hospitalization, and SCCA staff can coordinate admissions at any time.
When you arrive at Seattle Cancer Care Alliance, our staff will automatically preregister your child at Seattle Children's, so admission will be smooth. If your child's admission to the Children's inpatient unit is scheduled in advance, you will be given the time and date to go to the hospitla by the SCCA clinic staff.
You and your family can expect to be treated with the utmost care and respect. You are encouraged to ask questions as they come up at any time.
