AYA Infusion update! On the left is the hallway leading to the space, which has a separate check in desk and waiting room for young adults. On the right is our new nurses station!

[UNC AYA Cancer Program @UNC_AYA_Cancer]

Infusion bays are coming to life! Our AYA advisory board wanted the ability to engage with neighbors OR have privacy - enter these sliding dividers. Other infusion bay features will include dimmable lighting, light filtering and room darkening blinds and chairs w/ heat.

We have drywall and paint! Our young adult advisory board wanted our infusion space to feel as natural as possible - excited to see our forest start to come to life!

[UNC AYA Cancer Program @UNC_AYA_Cancer]

DEMO DAY! Murph and Jesse sat with us on the patio of the hospital Starbucks 5 yrs ago & dreamed up plans for our AYA patient advisory board. That same board has designed every inch of our new AYA outpatient infusion space & these 2 were jazzed to smash some walls in!

Were you diagnosed with cancer between the ages of 15 and 17? Researchers at UNC are seeking input from teens to help us develop programs to support AYAs as they transition into survivorship. For more information visit https://t.co/C8HviPR7CP
