The project will construct an approximate 122,000 GSF multi-story facility to provide cancer screenings, improve treatments, and bring hope and comfort to El Paso and surrounding communities. State-of-the-art diagnostic equipment support will be brought to building-wide operations, and an infusion clinic, radiation, and medical oncology clinics, as well as all supporting elements, will be facilitated. This will ensure a comprehensive and patient-centered approach to cancer care.
The proposed new facility will include:
An imaging center containing approximately 49,000 GSF. The new TTUHSC El Paso Clinical Sciences Building will share this imaging center, which will be constructed simultaneously with this facility.
The imaging center will contain approximately 31,000 GSF of imaging space, which will include numerous machines and diagnostic equipment, including Spect, Echo, Theranostics, CTs, X-rays, PETs, MRIs, Mammogram equipment, Radiology/Fluoroscopy equipment, Ultrasound equipment, and a host of other treatment and diagnostic equipment. Approximately 18,000 GSF of the imaging center will be dedicated to clinical support space, which includes the common areas, clinical support, and spaces such as waiting rooms, nurse's stations, vital collection areas, doctor collaboration areas, and resident touchdown areas.
An Oncology Center with approximately 73,000 GSF that includes:
A Medical Oncology Clinic providing approximately 13,600 GSF will house numerous patient exam rooms, patient consultation rooms, patient procedure rooms, and support areas for clinical operations.
A Radiation Oncology Clinic with approximately 12,000 GSF includes patient exam rooms, dressing rooms, support areas, two linear accelerators, HDR, and a computer tomograph simulator.
An Infusion Clinic with approximately 11,700 GSF will include 25 infusion positions (including five shells), private patient rooms, consultation rooms, and support space for clinical operations.
The remaining 35,700 SF will include:
Research/Clinical Trial space;
Infusion Pharmacy;
Resident touchdown space;
Clinical support and non-assignable square footage for the administration;
Common areas and building support spaces. |
