NORTHWEST INDIANA | Residents in Northwest Indiana have a new regional destination for cancer-related treatment and support.
Powers Health and Northwest Cancer Centers on Thursday, Nov. 13, hosted a ribbon-cutting ceremony to celebrate the opening of the Cancer Care Center, 10191 Broadway, Crown Point.
The two respected healthcare organizations partnered on the project to provide Northwest Indiana residents a multitude of services under one roof for convenient and efficient access to oncology care. The 71,000-square-foot facility opened its doors to patients on Monday, Nov. 17.
“This project is an example of the possibilities that exist when innovation intersects with collaboration,” said Donald P. Fesko, President and CEO of Powers Health. “Northwest Indiana residents will benefit from having convenient access to personalized cancer treatment just minutes from home.”
Powers Health occupies the first floor, and Northwest Cancer Centers occupies the second floor. The third floor is shared space. Patients will experience seamless care as they undergo testing and receive oncology treatments and therapies.
“Northwest Cancer Centers and Powers Health have a shared vision to deliver vital treatment and compassionate care to patients who are facing cancer,” said Mohamad Kassar, MD, President and CEO of Northwest Cancer Centers.
Key features include a CT simulation room and the TrueBeam linear accelerator. In the CT simulation room, radiation therapists perform a “mapping session” to generate a 3-D map used to precisely define a patient’s radiation treatment. The TrueBeam linear accelerator combines advanced imaging with radiation treatment delivery for precision in targeting tumors to minimize damage to healthy tissue.
The Cancer Care Center also offers the following:
With an on-site multidisciplinary clinic to foster collaboration, patients will meet with providers from radiation oncology, medical oncology and surgical oncology in a single visit for a personalized treatment plan. As part of their holistic visit, patients also may meet with supportive care professionals from psychosocial oncology, oncology rehabilitation and nutrition.
The center also offers integrative medicine, which combines conventional treatments with therapies such as acupuncture and massage to address patients’ physical, mental and emotional needs. Nurse navigators and social workers support patients by coordinating interdisciplinary care, addressing barriers and offering emotional support. Our cancer research team contributes to studies that improve prevention, treatment and survivorship outcomes.
