Safety measures to protect patients, visitors and employees.
At Multidisciplinary Cancer Care (MCC) we support patients and address their concerns about their unhindered treatment during the COVID-19 pandemic, strictly adhering to the Hellenic National Public Health Organization (NPHO) guidelines.
We carry out frequent disinfections, based on the instructions of NPHO. We provide masks and hand antiseptics for our visitors and employees.
We have a 6-stage air purification system (profile filter, HEPA filter, activated carbon filter, carbon filter, photocatalysis filter, UV lamp) in the waiting area.
We keep the necessary distance and wear a mask.
