Rooted in its mission to offer cancer patients the most advanced treatments close to home, Penn Medicine’s Abramson Cancer Center at Chester County Hospital is expanding its footprint by undergoing a transformational renovation at its 440 East Marshall Street location in West Chester. Its goal: provide more treatment areas, more doctors, more surgeons, and more access to Penn Medicine's world-renowned cancer specialists right here in Chester County, PA.
The expansion has been scheduled in THREE phases. Phase One, completed in August of 2017, included renovating the first floor to include 25 new exam rooms, three phlebotomy stations (to take blood), a laboratory and an elevator that takes patients to the second floor for infusion services once they have signed in.
Previously, the facility was accessed through the second floor, facing Maple Avenue. Now, patients park and sign-in on the first floor, facing East Marshall Street.
Patients are asked to park in the parking lot facing E. Marshall St.
and enter through the new front entrance.
Phase Two is underway and includes renovating the second floor to provide a partial installment of 25 state-of-the-art chemotherapy infusion bays along with new physician offices. Phase Two is expected to be completed in early 2018. Once completed, Phase Three will begin and will include updating the balance of the chemotherapy infusion bays and adding a new pharmacy, offering patients quicker access to the medications they need.
