Each and every person who works at The Christie performs a valuable role which directly links to patient care. Whether it is a nurse delivering chemotherapy treatments, a member of the administration team sending out an appointment letter, a surgeon performing a robotic procedure, the domestic teams ensuring our wards are spotlessly clean, or an IT engineer keeping our computer systems running, there is a huge variety of roles that come together to make The Christie special.
All our staff go to tremendous lengths to help each and every one of our patients and together: We are The Christie.
Ivan Cobham is The Christie’s first dedicated activity coordinator. He offers personalised support to adult oncology patients during inpatient stays. While the focus is on those with cognitive impairment, delirium or dementia, Ivan supports any patient who may benefit from stimulation, companionship or emotional support.
