North Eastern Melbourne Integrated Cancer Service 145 Studley Road, Heidelberg, Victoria 3084

Welcome to the North Eastern Melbourne Integrated Cancer Service (NEMICS), located at 145 Studley Road, Heidelberg, Australia. As an establishment dedicated to providing exceptional healthcare, we are a point of interest for individuals seeking comprehensive cancer care.

At NEMICS, we prioritize the well-being of all patients, including those from the LGBTIQA community. We are committed to improving LGBTIQA cancer care throughout Victoria and the NEMICS region, and we invite you to read our summary report on the subject. Understanding the unique challenges faced by this community is crucial in ensuring tailored and inclusive care.

In our continuous efforts to enhance patient care, we are excited to introduce the Care of the Older Person with Cancer Toolkit. Developed by the Victorian Integrated Cancer Services (VICS), this resource aims to assist health services and ICS in providing optimal care for older individuals with cancer. We believe in the importance of addressing the specific needs of this demographic and ensuring their comfort and well-being throughout their cancer journey.

NEMICS proudly administers the VICS Optimal Care Summits program on behalf of VICS. This program focuses on strategic consultation, multidisciplinary engagement, data analysis, and reporting to identify any unwarranted variations in clinical practice and cancer outcomes. By prioritizing these activities, we aim to continuously improve the quality of care and outcomes for our patients.

We are thrilled to announce that the Pancreatic Cancer Resectability Project has received further support through the federal government's Medical Research Future Fund (MRFF), awarded to Monash University. This funding will enable us to conduct groundbreaking research and advance our understanding of pancreatic cancer, ultimately leading to improved treatments and outcomes for patients.

As a testament to our commitment to exceptional cancer care, NEMICS is proudly supported by the Victorian Government. We are grateful for their ongoing support and collaboration in our mission to provide the highest standard of care to our patients.

Lastly, we acknowledge and pay respect to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, who are the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we operate. We celebrate and value diversity, inclusivity, and the contributions of individuals from all backgrounds, genders, sexualities, cultures, bodies, and abilities. At NEMICS, everyone is welcome, and we strive to create a supportive and inclusive environment for all.
