Lodged by Evelyn Tweed Standard Motion 12 supporters

The motion

That the Parliament congratulates the NHS Forth Valley Oncology team on winning the Myeloma UK Clinical Service Excellence Programme (CSEP) Award; understands that myeloma is considered to be a challenging cancer due to symptoms sometimes not being present at first and being mistaken for other ailments; believes that around half of the people with myeloma have to wait more than five months before they get the right diagnosis and that myeloma has no cure; understands that myeloma presents mental and physical challenges and requires complex care; commends the NHS Forth Valley Oncology team for the care and dedication it has demonstrated to its patients; notes that the team has been commended for providing the highest standard of personal care with support tailored to the specific needs of each patient; further notes that judges praised the team for going the extra mile every day by working closely with other hospital departments and signposting patients to additional services for support and advice, and congratulates the team for its excellent achievement.
