Last chemo celebration ideas

Specialties Oncology

Hey guys!! Just wanting some feedback on how you celebrate a pt's last chemo treatment. Our radiation oncology group has them ring a bell and gives them a "graduation" certificate. I just don't think that will work for our patients as some of them start maintenance regimens or progress. Let me know how you celebrate!!!

We gave our patients graduation diplomas.

In our children's hospital they get a toy from donations we collect year round. Perhaps some type of symbolic gift like a motivational plaque? Coffee mug? Maybe a local quilters' or sewing group might make something appropriate?
