PHILADELPHIA-Cancer Treatment Centers of America, which acquired the shuttered Parkview Hospital from Tenet Healthcare Corp. in late 2004 plans to double current capacity in the opening phase of a four-year expansion plan. At an initial investment of $12.7 million in 2008, it will reconfigure some existing space and complete the build-out of levels four and five.

“We expect to add capacity at this pace over the next four years,” Kane Dawson, SVP of operations, tells GlobeSt.com. “The full plan also calls for construction of a new guest tower that will add 100 guest rooms and resource areas for patients and families. It is projected to cost $20 million.” Dawson says the campus, which is located at 1331 E. Wyoming Ave. in Northeast Philadelphia, can accommodate the additional building.

During the 2008 opening phase the outpatient area will be expanded by 3,200 sf to add new exam rooms and treatment space along with an in-house PET/CT facility. Sixteen inpatient beds will be added taking the total to 38. In addition, 40 new guest rooms for patients and families, along with amenity and resource areas for them and caregivers will be constructed in the now-vacant fourth and fifth floors of the hospital.
