Isle of Wight cancer patients treatment and appointments hit by Covid

Newport - St Mary s Hospital NHS Trust. HEALTHCARE bosses on the Isle of Wight are worried about the effect Covid-19 has had on cancer performance at the Island s only hospital. During the pandemic, cancer services continued to run but in an update given to the Isle of Wight NHS Trust s board, it was said a considerable number of people had either deferred or declined appointments and treatment at mainland hospitals. Chief operating officer of the trust, Joe Smyth, said he was particularly concerned about the risks caused by waiting times that had built up. He said: We have been able to get most of the people to their appointments but I have concerns some people will have inadvertently and have been caused harm by delaying their own treatment.
