Our Project
UNC Health relocated its existing operating rooms to this new seven-story building, which connects to the existing five-building UNC Medical Center campus. These new operating rooms have been expanded to accommodate large teams of specialists and provide room to grow. The tower also offers 80 intensive care beds, waiting spaces, clinical offices, pre- and postoperative patient rooms, a sterile processing area, hybrid operating rooms for imaging and surgical procedures, and a satellite pharmacy to serve the wider community and attract top provider talent.
Providing flexibility for future technological advances and preparedness for tomorrow’s unknown challenges were part of the vision for the tower. Many spaces serving families and guests can flex and change into larger patient treatment areas as needed. Safety for all the building’s users was also top of mind, serving as the design driver for the pedestrian bridge that links the Surgical Tower to the existing parking decks.
