Originally founded in 1447 in Pavia, the POLICLINICO SAN MATTEO is a public hospital and one of the largest healthcare centres of the Lombardy region with 1 286 beds combining clinical facilities with research and teaching activities. The hospital is integrated into the National Health Service and in 1982 it was declared a Treatment and Research Institute of Public Interest (IRCCS) by the Italian Ministry of Health.Location
Description
The proposed project concerns the restructuring and expansion of the existing hospital, including: (a) the construction of a multifunctional 12-story building where the casualty department, 1 surgical block, and wards for a total of 517 beds will be relocated from existing structures (“pavilions”) that has now become obsolete and dysfunctional; (b) the new construction of an infectious diseases and AIDS clinic; (c) the new construction of an administration building together with teaching facilities; (d) the restructuring a long-term residential facility for AIDS patients and (e) the remodelling of the respiratory diseases pavilion. 14 new operating theatres will add to the hospital’s capacity to respond to a growing need, deriving from the higher complexity and number of surgical treatments, while the overall number of beds and specialties will remain the same.
Objectives
The proposed project will facilitate the modernisation and rationalisation of the hospital’s old pavilion structure that has now become obsolete and dysfunctional, it will improve its physical condition, functional suitability and space utilisation, and consequently it will contribute to the overall clinical management efficiency and reduction of associated maintenance and operating costs.
