Brno - The Faculty Hospital of Saint Anne in Brno today opened a new intensive care pavilion with the participation of Prime Minister Bohuslav Sobotka and Minister of Health Svatopluk Němeček (both from the Czech Social Democratic Party). The completion of the pavilion marks the end of a six-year project costing more than 2.8 billion crowns. The hospital constructed a complex in two phases consisting of three interconnected buildings. In addition to the intensive care pavilion, two buildings were already established in the past, housing the cardiology and neurology clinics as well as a research facility. The brand new intensive care pavilion includes 12 operating rooms connected to a central sterilization unit and a post-operative intensive care unit. The building also features a high-threshold emergency department and the inpatient section of the anesthesiology-resuscitation clinic, including a helipad on the roof. This marked the completion of the second part of the project aimed at modernizing the hospital facilities. The first phase began in 2010 and concluded in the autumn of 2012. During these years, two buildings were constructed that comprise the 1st Internal Cardiology Clinic, the 1st Neurology Clinic, and research facilities linked to them, which house the International Clinical Research Center of the Faculty Hospital of Saint Anne in Brno. The total costs for establishing the complex exceeded 2.8 billion crowns. The state budget provided nearly two billion crowns, while the South Moravian Region contributed an additional 30 million crowns, and the hospital covered more than 800 million from its own resources.
