Phoenix Children’s in the US has announced expansion projects at Thomas Campus to address the healthcare needs of increasing paediatric population in Arizona.
The series of expansion projects at Phoenix Children’s Hospital – Thomas Campus will total 212,000ft2.
Phoenix Children’s president and CEO Robert Meyer said: “Increasing clinical capacity at our Thomas Campus is more important than ever, especially given the high volume of complex, high-acuity care we provide.”
Phoenix Children’s plans to open a series of Thomas Campus projects over the next year. They will focus primarily on clinical space and result in around 100 new patient beds and an additional 60 clinical exam rooms.
As part of the expansion projects on the Thomas Campus, 10th and 11th floor buildout will create an additional clinical space of 88,000ft2 including nearly 100 new inpatient beds, patient playrooms and family lounges.
