Building upon the strengths of Kennedy’s established cancer program, Kennedy physicians and patients have access to the full continuum of specialty and subspecialty care and resources available through the Abramson Cancer Center of the University of Pennsylvania – including innovative preventative, diagnostic and treatment services, an extensive clinical trials program, as well as research and education programs that benefit cancer patients and their families.

Cancer Care at Kennedy is based upon three fundamental elements:

• Knowledgeable and compassionate physicians who specialize in various cancer treatment approaches;
• Dedicated and caring staff including oncology nurses, radiation therapists, social worker, medical imaging experts and other highly trained individuals with experience in cancer treatment;
• Extensive programs and services to support hope and healing for cancer patients and their families. From Reiki to art discovery, meditation and visualization to yoga, and cooking to exercise classes, these programs are offered free of charge throughout the year.

The Kennedy Health System is a member of the Penn Cancer Network and is the only healthcare system in Camden, Burlington and Gloucester counties to hold this distinction.

In addition to Kennedy's participation in the Penn Cancer Network, professional services for patients receiving radiation therapy at the Kennedy Cancer Center on our Washington Township campus are provided by Penn's Department of Radiation Oncology. Physicians practicing at this facility are board-certified in radiation oncology and are faculty of the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine.
