General Summary of Position
Unit Highlights
About MedStar Georgetown University Hospital's Hematology/Blood and
Marrow Transplant Unit - 2 Bles
2 Bles is an 18-bed, newly renovated, Hematology/Oncology/Blood and
Marrow Transplant Unit. 2 Bles is one of two adult inpatient
oncology units at MedStar Georgetown, caring for the patients of
the Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center, established in 1971.
Lombardi was initially designated by the National Cancer Institute
(NCI) in 1974 and achieved NCI comprehensive status in 1990. The
mission of Lombardi is to improve the diagnosis, treatment, and
prevention of cancer through innovative basic science, clinical
research, patient care, community outreach, and the training of
cancer specialists of the future.
The patient population of 2 Bles includes all hematologic diseases
and cancers (leukemia, lymphoma, multiple myeloma, ITP, sickle cell
anemia), autologous PBSC transplant patients, oncologic solid
tumor, and a wide range of medical diagnoses. The nurses on 2 Bles
provide expert care for their patients, often utilizing a number of
hematology/oncology research protocols. In the spring of 2013,
MedStar Georgetown entered into an affiliation with Hackensack
University Medical Center (HUMC) to establish a Blood and Marrow
Stem Cell Transplantation Program. This agreement creates greater
access to people with cancer, blood diseases and immune deficiency
conditions to receive lifesaving treatment in the Washington, DC
area. In 2016, the Blood and Marrow Stem Cell Transplantation
Program received FACT accreditation for autologous transplants.
