What Oncology Clinicians & Patients Say

"Patients have remarked that the aromatherapy is calming, pleasant, and signals a change in environment from the bustling hallways of the hospital to the inpatient palliative unit.

We try to create a space that feels sacred, comforting, and as home-like as possible. I feel like the aromatherapy helps achieve that purpose."
