Endorsement from University College London Hospital Treating the whole person, not only their cancer is central to the way services will be provided in the UCH Macmillan Cancer Centre when it opens in April 2012 . This will be very welcome news to Angie Buxton-King who, as complementary therapy team manager, can be largely credited for introducing the current provision of complementary therapies available to cancer patients at the Rosenheim and UCH. "Angie's behind the scenes work - attracting funding, setting up tools to measure patient satisfaction and developing policies so that therapists work to the same, consistently high standards - has laid the foundations for complementary therapy to become fully integrated into cancer care" said Martin Lerner, divisional manger for cancer services. "Our long term aim is to offer complementary services as part of the care pathway for all cancer patients who would like to receive them." Patients consistently give good feedback but to demonstrate how complementary therapies can benefit cancer patients, Angie worked with the haematology nursing research team to design a clinical trial to examine the effects of Reiki on patient quality of life. This groundbreaking randomised controlled trial will attempt to recruit more than 100 patients over the next two years. Angie and husband Graham leave UCLH with a lasting legacy. In 2006 they created ‘The Sam Buxton Sunflower Healing Trust' charity in memory of Angie's son Sam. The Trust has donated over £100k towards the UCLH complementary therapy team and funds five other projects at cancer centres in the UK. Through their Trust, Angie and Graham will continue to be strong advocates for integrating complementary therapies into healthcare.
