The Hospital is characterised in particular by:

2500 sq m dedicated to intensive care and just as many for the new operating block, which also includes a structured “hybrid” room for the combined work of cardiac surgeons and cardiologists specialising in haemodynamics in special procedures, and another, neurosurgical, set up to become “hybrid” with the installation of the MRI or of the PET-CT. These 5000 sq m, inaugurated in 2014, are the fruit of the two-year long work carried out by intensive care doctors, specialists in cardiovascular and thoracic surgery, neurosurgery, interventional cardiology and architects.
