Adolescent and Young Adult (AYA)

The Adolescent and Young Adult (AYA) program in Marysville, KS, is committed to providing compassionate care and dedicated support for patients aged 13 and older who are undergoing treatment for cancer and blood disorders. Our comprehensive approach includes a multidisciplinary team of healthcare professionals such as social workers, child life specialists, nutritionists, and medical providers, all working together to address the unique needs of AYA patients. We emphasize family involvement in the care process and continuously seek feedback to enhance the quality of our services. As patients transition to adult care at the age of 21, we ensure a seamless handover to adult Hematology/Oncology providers, maintaining vital support throughout their journey. Through services like nutrition planning, fertility counseling, and specialized child life support, our program is dedicated to nurturing both the physical and emotional well-being of adolescents and young adults facing these challenging health issues.
