Wenatchee, Wash.-based Confluence Health plans to open a new cancer center at its Central Campus in mid-2028, with construction slated to begin in November.
The project recently received board approval and has moved into the schematic design phase, the health system said in a Jan. 6 news release.
Three details:
1. The project is budgeted at nearly $60 million and will be built as an expansion to the current hospital campus.
2. The new facility will expand capacity significantly, increasing exam rooms by 38%, medical infusion chairs by 76% and doubling radiation capacity with the addition of a second linear accelerator vault.
3. The cancer center is designed to improve continuity of care, consolidating medical oncology, radiation, infusion, labs and support services under one roof to reduce fragmentation and streamline the patient experience from diagnosis through survivorship.
At the Becker's Perioperative Summit, taking place September 14–15 in Chicago, perioperative leaders and healthcare executives will focus on improving operating room efficiency, enhancing patient safety, optimizing staffing and driving innovation across surgical services.
