University Hospital - Institute for Transfusion Medicine, Ward 17

The Ward 17 building is a flat building built before the turn of the last century. The structure consists of a central portion and two end-buildings. The northern end-building is fully equipped with a basement.

The existing floors are not sufficient to establish a central department for transfusion medicine. Modular units were therefore put up next to the building and these are joined to the old building by means of a connecting building.

The patients’ entrance is situated at the north-east side of the units where the waiting zone, the reception, the examination rooms, the donor laboratory and the blood-collection room are located. A storage room and toilet facilities are planned for the connecting building. The area of the old building will remain closed to donors.

The laboratories, the cold storage, the warehousing and delivery sections and the administrative, counselling and staff rooms are situated here.
