7. Short description of proposed project.
Eisenhower Health has recently acquired the complex at 1111 E Tahquitz Cyn,
thanks to the generosity of a donor. The 8,000sf Building C will be renovated with the
help of Measure J funds to house 2 new clinics designed to bring much-needed cancer
and cardiology care closer to the heart of Palm Springs. Last year patients from PS
made 3,838visits to the Eisenhower Lucy Curci Cancer Center's infusion facility in
Rancho Mirage. Right now access to comprehensive infusion services in the West
Valley are limited often leading to delays and added stress for patients. By opening a
local infusion center we will make life a little easier at a difficult time, offering
treatments close to home and improving care and patient compliance by making it
more accessible. Patients will have access to highquality care close to home. Initially,
both clinics will be open 2 days/week. Eventually we’ll offer 5,500 infusion
appointments, 5 days/wk and also care for 300+ cardiology patients right here in PS.
