Garbí Building

The Garbí Building is a multi-purpose space in the Parc Sanitari Pere Virgili, designed to adapt to the changing healthcare needs of the Vall d’Hebron University Hospital. It currently houses specialised units to offer personalised, quality care to patients.

Project description

The Garbí Building, situated in the Parc Sanitari Pere Virgili, has established itself as a leading multi-purpose space in the Vall d’Hebron University Hospital. With a modern, versatile structure, it is designed to meet the changing needs of the healthcare system, offering quality care in an environment adapted to the latest medical technologies.

It covers 3,111 m² distributed over four floors of 777 m² each. Its facilities are equipped with the same technology as the hospitalisation and ICU wards in the Vall d’Hebron General Hospital. It was built in 2020 as one of the five multi-purpose spaces commissioned by the Catalan Health Service to manage the Covid-19 pandemic.

Oncology Day Hospital and Geriatric Oncohaematology Appointments

The 3rd floor of the Garbí Building houses the Oncology Day Hospital, a department that provides out-patient care for people with cancer who need treatments such as chemotherapy. The space is designed to ensure the patients’ comfort during their sessions.

It also includes the Geriatric Oncohaematology appointment department, an innovative unit that combines expertise in oncology and geriatrics to offer comprehensive care to elderly people with solid tumour or blood cancers and improve their quality of life.

The 2nd floor is where oncohaematology patients are hospitalised. It is equipped to ensure quality care for patients requiring intensive treatments and specialised follow-up.

Neurology Appointments

The Garbí Building has also extended its capacity to attend to patients with neurodegenerative diseases, creating a new space covering 120 m² specifically for this field. The new space includes outpatient appointment offices, two neuropsychology offices to provide in-depth assessments, a chair for administering therapies in the Day Hospital and a staff work room. These new facilities bring together all the care requirements for patients with dementia and movement disorders in one place, helping improve both healthcare and the quality of the services.

Winter contingency plan

The 1st floor is reserved for the hospitalisation of patients with acute decompensations, as part of the winter contingency plan, established by the Catalan Ministry of Health.

CT scan service

The ground floor of the Garbí Building houses the computerised axial tomography (CT scan) service that provides high-precision diagnoses using advanced technology. The service is essential for obtaining detailed images to enable the medical team to make precise, speedy medical decisions in the treatment of different pathologies.

The first days during the pandemic

The Garbí Building opened its doors during the Covid-19 pandemic, when it was converted into a key resource for tackling the health crisis. At the time, it was equipped for patients requiring hospitalisation, providing 56 beds for acute patients and 32 for critical and semi-critical patients. This flexibility and adaptability were decisive factors in responding to the high demand for healthcare during the toughest moments of the pandemic.

Today, the Garbí Building maintains this spirit of service and change, establishing itself as an essential infrastructure in the Vall d’Hebron healthcare system.
