Gpaci Hospital completes renovation two years after flood that inundated facility in Sorocaba

Gpaci Hospital in Sorocaba, Brazil, has completed its renovation two years after being flooded, enhancing its facilities for patient care and safety.

Gpaci Hospital, part of the Research and Assistance Group for Childhood Cancer, located in Sorocaba, São Paulo, has successfully completed its renovation after two years of extensive work. This renovation was necessitated by a severe flooding incident that affected the hospital's ground floor during a storm in 2024. The official inauguration of the newly improved facility coincides with the completion of the renovation work, marking a significant milestone for the hospital's operations and services.

The renovation process included substantial structural improvements aimed at enhancing safety, comfort, and quality of care for patients. Key areas that have undergone revitalization include the cafeteria, reception area, auditorium, and meeting rooms. These changes not only facilitate better service delivery but also reduce risks associated with potential future weather-related incidents, ensuring that the hospital remains resilient against climate variations.

Moreover, the updates to the ground floor and the hospital’s façade are designed to provide a more dignified experience for patients and their families. The revamped spaces also serve a functional purpose by allowing the philanthropic hospital to better engage with investors and host events for fundraising. The Gpaci Hospital positions itself as a leader in pediatric oncology care, and these renovations reflect its commitment to improving healthcare services in the region.
