All Wales Cancer Treatment Alert Cards

The All Wales Cancer Treatment Alert Cards have been developed for patients receiving chemotherapy and immunotherapy. There are three versions available:

Cancer Treatment alert card, for adult oncology and haematology patients receiving SACT.
Paediatric Cancer Treatment alert card, for oncology or haematology children (or their parents/ guardian) receiving SACT.
Chemotherapy and DPD alert card: for patients receiving fluoropyrimidine chemotherapy who have a DYPD genetic variant resulting in a DPD deficiency.

Translations for non English / Welsh speakers

Translations are available in some commonly requested languages of the patient information sections of the alert cards. These are available below, and can be downloaded and printed as required. This translated information must be attached to the English/Welsh card so that the guidance for healthcare professionals is available to all staff managing the patients care. A translator should be used to provide a full explanation when the card is given to the patient.

Cancer Network staff are currently working on translating and proof-reading translations in additional languages – if you are able to assist with this, or have any requests for translation, please contact wcn.wales.cancer.network@nhs.wales.uk.
