Johnson Memorial Hospital, based in Enfield, Conn., reopened its cancer center after the hospital underwent a $40 million expansion and renovation project that added 5,500 square feet to the center, according to an Aug. 23 report from NBC affiliate WWLP-22News.
The Karen Davis Kryznowek Cancer Center was expanded with the intention of becoming the "hub" for outpatient services at the Enfield campus, according to the report.
It now hosts all outpatient cancer services the hospital has to offer, including radiation oncology, medical oncology and physician offices. The project added medical oncology infusion bays with privacy screens, televisions and additional space for patients' family members or friends.
Additionally, the surgery center within the S. Prestley and Helen Blake Ambulatory Care Center will gain four new operating rooms, recovery areas and extra medical office space once the project is complete, according to the report.
