The Cancer Center at Shore Medical Center was conceived, designed and built specifically to support the special needs of cancer patients and their families. It represents the new look of 21st century cancer care -- a comprehensive approach combining clinical excellence with patient comfort and convenience.
A blend of leading-edge technology and beautiful design, the Cancer Center supports the technical needs of physicians, radiation therapists, physicists, nurses and other specialists while providing a convenient, safe, caring and attractive atmosphere of healing, privacy and dignity.
Located on the Shore Medical Center campus, the Cancer Center is free-standing, conveniently located at Shore Road and Brighton Avenue in Somers Point, New Jersey. The exterior design blends with residential development in the area. Inside, the feeling is inspiring -- a quiet, tastefully decorated space that is welcoming and relaxing.
Every aspect of the design was chosen to reduce stress, with muted colors, warm wood and generous use of natural light. Soothing music plays in patient waiting area and treatment rooms. The waiting areas, patient access and treatment rooms provide for different privacy requirements. Two waiting rooms are provided - one with television and a second, quiet waiting room.
The patient and family library offers research materials, cancer-related books and pamphlets and Internet access. The library is stocked with materials from the American Cancer Society, the National Cancer Institute and the Oncology Nursing Society. Materials are available in both English and Spanish.
