Many patients receiving conventional cancer care benefit from complementary therapies. A cancer centre offering complementary therapies tailors them to meet each patient's needs and complement conventional therapies. To integrate care, it was important to gain the trust and cooperation of colleagues in conventional disciplines. This was done by focusing on thorough needs assessments and evaluation to demonstrate the value of the therapies on offer.
