ACRF OASIS Centre
In 2017 Liverpool Hospital Cancer Services was
awarded a $2 million Australian Cancer Research Foundation (ACRF) grant to go
towards Australian Cancer Research Foundation Oncology Alliance for the Science
of Integrated Survivorship (OASIS) Centre.
The
ACRF OASIS Centre is part of the $790 million redevelopment of the Liverpool Health
and Academic Precinct. (LHAP) The ACRF OASIS centre is part of stage 2 of the
redevelopment. The current wellness centre will be relocated to Level 1 of the Don Everett Building at Liverpool Hospital from December 2024 until late 2027 while the
construction of the integrated cancer centre is undertaken.
Once completed the ACRF OASIS centre will be the only centre in
Sydney collecting data for research and evidence purposes in order to further
improve the care that can be provided to future cancer patients. The centre will focus on gathering scientific evidence on the use of a wide range of
treatments including massage, acupuncture, exercise, Chinese medicine and diet
in improving short and long-term treatment and quality of life outcomes for
cancer patients.
