Certification
The UCT Frankfurt-Marburg's expertise in cancer care is organized into Cancer Centers. At regular intervals, our centers invite various external auditors in to help us measure the quality of our work and how well our inpatient and outpatient cancer treatment facilities cooperate. Our goal is to maintain patient care at a consistently high level and continuously improve our work. We are not only committed to outstanding patient care, but also to developing new strategies for treatment and promoting basic and translational cancer research. The cancer care centers at the UCT Frankfurt-Marburg are audited and certified along the three-phase model run by the German Cancer Society (Organ Cancer Centers and Oncology Centers) and the German Cancer Aid (Oncology Center of Excellence).
In addition, we obtain accreditation for some of the UCT Frankfurt-Marburg’s facilities through various other independent accrediting institutions. For example, the stem cell transplantation units of the Carreras Leukemia Center at the University Hospital Marburg as well as the Department of Medicine II, Hematology/Oncology, and the Department of Pediatric and Adolescent Medicine at the University Hospital Frankfurt are certified by JACIE.
