Highlights

  • With an investment of $1.4 billion, the Calgary Cancer Centre is the largest government infrastructure project in the province.
    • The project remains on time and on budget. Construction will be complete in 2022 and the building will then be handed over to AHS, to get ready for patients.
  • The new Calgary Cancer Centre will engage patients at the centre of a multidisciplinary health system, enabling access to comprehensive cancer care services in a world-class facility.
    • In fact, the extensive scope and integration of cancer care services at the CCC will make it one of the most comprehensive cancer centres in the world.
    • Integrated research across the spectrum will further optimize care with focus on prevention, early detection, precision medicine and psychosocial care.
  • Operationally, the Calgary Cancer Centre will include both inpatient and outpatient services. Services are based on clinical priorities as identified by AHS and include:
    • more than 100 patient exam rooms;
    • 160 inpatient unit beds;
    • more than 100 chemotherapy chairs;
    • increased space for clinical trials;
