Chemo comfort kits are care packages that contain various different items intended both to comfort and entertain your loved one during their chemotherapy sessions. It can be considered a long term version of simply sending flowers, card or fruit basket. Studies have proven that chemo comfort kits decrease pain during treatment, help patients recover faster from chemotherapy sessions and helps improves nursing care.
