The owners of Global Oncology Services, LLC., have designed, operated and or managed facilities that can economically treat from 300 to 2500 patients per year system wide. Some of these facilities are freestanding, or completely separate from the hospital environment, while others are housed within the hospital or attached to the facilities as an expansion. In any case, we carefully match the facility and equipment to the local business strategy.
Typically, our freestanding facilities consist of 3,000 to 6,000 square feet (278 to 556 square meters). A center with two treatment devices, with its own treatment planning and imaging facilities, would consume around 6,000 square feet, but can treat over 700 patients per year if operating only 8 hours per day. Although we often develop smaller centers, which are attached to hospitals, we have also been very successful developing centers, which are completely freestanding and provide only outpatient care, meaning that the patient requires no hospitalization during the course of radiotherapy.
We work with your architects and builders or will recommend and manage this for
our partners. |
