SHANDS CANCER HOSPITAL AT THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA

Because so many people gave to this project, more and more people like Mary Ellen Bentham are winning their battles with cancer. You have made a difference.

The cancer hospital complex was designed to be a welcoming, family friendly place. It offers a healing garden, the Criser Cancer Resource Center, training rooms and the Shands at UF Auxiliary Conference Center with public space for community health fairs, screenings and educational workshops on health issues such as cancer prevention and treatment.

Shands built this hospital in response to increased demand for cancer services. One of every seven adult patients hospitalized at Shands at UF comes to us with a cancer-related condition.
