Parkview Health | Packnett Family Cancer Institute project

Parkview Health | Packnett Family Cancer Institute

With Weigand overseeing development as construction manager, the Packnett Family Cancer Institute is home to a leading regional cancer treatment program located on the campus of Parkview Regional Medical Center. Due to the absence of quality care available in the community, Parkview sought to bring all their cancer specialists, nursing teams, and physicians into one facility to assist patients across northern Indiana.

State-of-the-Art

The cancer institute is a 181,900 square foot, six-story structure that was built with “patient-first” mentality. Down to the drawings and layout, the building helps ease the minds of visitors with its gentle, lush design. Along with patient care, the facility pairs principal industry technology to create an environment that offers the best in both treatment and comfort.

Building Features:

The cancer center has a beautiful, three-story indoor garden that connects people to nature with vegetation, natural light, and a warm ambiance. To simplify the examination process, patients stay in specialized “care pods” where medical staff can perform all necessary consultation work, rather than having patients walk to multiple offices in the institute.

Best of Care Without Traveling

By placing the cancer institute on the Parkview Regional Medical Center campus (PRMC), patients and their families are given a closer resource that eliminates the need to travel a long distance to receive care. We are proud to partner with Parkview to make this project a reality. We’re excited to see how the Packnett Family Cancer Institute continues to serve communities all throughout the region!

[99%] of our patients really can’t go outside the area. Their support system is here in northeast Indiana...We owe it to every one of our patients, no matter what their demographics...for them to have the best care model available to them right here, and to me, that's the best thing that we can deliver.
