The Mid-Western Cancer Foundation

The Mid-Western Cancer Foundation was established by Professor R. K. Gupta, Consultant Medical Oncologist and Director of Cancer Services at the Mid Western Regional Hospital, Limerick. The fund was established to streamline donations to support and improve services and developments in the research and treatment of patients with Cancer in the Mid-West region.

Dr. C. B. Sabu with the Echocardiogaphy Machine which was bought out of money from the Mid-Western Cancer Foundation, the machine is used to benefit patients with cancer for research purposes and for assessing heart function.

The Cancer Centre in Limerick provides a full range of services to patients with Cancer such as a dedicated inpatient Ward and Haematology/Oncology Day Ward where patients attend for pre diagnosis, at diagnosis time and for treatment thereafter. We also have a Regional Specialist Breast Unit, Radiotherapy Centre & Palliative Care Services. Patients and their families can also avail of the Patient Information & Support Centre which provides patients and their families with up-to-date, research-based information on their Cancer and their treatment by qualified and experienced staff. The Support Centre also provides Support Groups, Psychological Support and Complementary Therapies in a quiet and peaceful environment.

These services are all critical to the people of the Mid West but need to be updated and expanded to accommodate the growing population and increasing number of patients with cancer in the Mid West. The money raised by the charity is used to better the Cancer Centre facilities and to make sure that the best treatment, services and cutting edge technology is available to Cancer Patients in the Mid West.
