Boston-based Mass General Brigham is planning to build an inpatient facility at its Brigham and Women’s Longwood campus, according to a Sept. 30 news release.
The facility will replace the nearly 50-year-old Braunwald building, which holds 564 beds, mostly double rooms and outdated elevators and operating spaces. The health system is aiming for beds to come online in the 2030s.
The new building will offer single rooms to facilitate infection control and allow co-location of health teams to ensure a comprehensive focus across diseases.
Moreover, critically ill patients in greater Boston will be able to transfer to the academic medical center to ease capacity at community hospitals.
