The new cancer center includes a new inpatient area and redesigned infusion area. The new cancer center is double the size of the old cancer center, according to a July 20 Intermountain news release provided to Becker’s.
The old space will be turned into a neonatal intensive care unit. The donation and new cancer center are part of Intermountain Primary Children’s Primary Promise campaign to improve pediatric care.
“Our patients and families love the new spaces, which are both engaging and calming by design to meet each child’s needs,” said Cheryl Gerdy, clinical operations director of oncology at Primary Children’s Hospital. “The healing environment is critical to all children, particularly kids with cancer, who often spend months at a time in the hospital and need as much comfort and normalcy as possible. The Sorensons have helped to bring just that to our patients, and we couldn’t be more grateful for their generosity.”
