We are proud to share that, at the beginning of this year, the construction of the two first modules of the new PUMS Hospital was completed, and this brand-new clinical facility opened its doors to patients. With the official name University Clinical Hospital in Poznan, this new medical center located at 55 Grunwaldzka Street in Poznan, has been integrated with the network of PUMS hospitals.

Within the new premises the University has initiated the operations of an emergency care unit – the fourth one in the city of Poznan – complete with a helicopter landing pad, observation room, intensive care room, operating and consultation rooms. The facilities are also the new home for:

• Integrated Operating Theater Unit (15 operating rooms, including two state-of-the-art hybrid ORs equipped with an intraoperative CT scanner with neuronavigation, and a neuropathology microscope for digital assessment of tissues without the necessity to physically extract them),
• One-day Surgery Ward with 4 ORs,
• Central Diagnostic Laboratory,
• Anesthesiology and Pain Therapy Ward,
• Endoscopy Laboratory,
• Orthopedics Ward,
• General Surgery Ward,
• Transplantation Surgery Ward,
• Endocrinology, and GI Oncology Ward,
• Urology Ward.

Additional modules expanding the facility are already in construction (including a Cardiology Ward) with the completion date set for 2026.

We are overjoyed to see this new center come to life and start functioning as part of our city’s healthcare infrastructure. With modern specialized design, state-of-the-art equipment, qualified personnel, and central location in the Grunwald district where most of PUMS campus buildings are located, the new hospital will contribute to raising the quality of medical care and accessibility of care in Poznan and the Greater Poland region, as well as improving the quality of medical education and workplace environment for our medical staff and students.

The total cost of the first two modules (over 25,000 sq m, equal to around 270,000 sq ft) amounted to 411 million PLN, with contributions from:

• 268 million in government subsidy,
• 79 million of EU funding,
• 63 million coming from the University’s own budget.
