Stanford Health Care has commenced a $1.2bn renovation project to rebuild certain parts of the Stanford Hospital complex located at 300 Pasteur Drive in Palo Alto, California, US.
The six-year project is intended to bolster facilities for patient care and will see complete renewal of the facility. The Stanford Hospital complex will remain open during the project.
Stanford Health aims to achieve more connectivity with the inpatient hospital building that opened last year at 500 Pasteur Drive.
The new project includes a dedicated cancer centre and two new four-storey building extensions that will house 58 private patient rooms. It will also see renovation of 21 operating and procedure rooms with advanced medical technology.
As part of the renovation, a paediatric emergency department will also be redesigned.
Stanford Health Care facilities, services and planning vice-president Helen Wilmot said: “The hospital redesign will enhance the experience for both patients and staff.
