The new building

Designed by the architects Bonell, Barberà, Canosa, Gil i Rius, the new Hospital de Sant Pau building is shaped like a hand: the main 36,000 square-metre block houses the outpatients service. Each of the fingers, devoted to hospital blocks, add up to a total of nearly 47,000 square metres. Every year this top hospital attends to almost 35,000 inpatients and over 145,000 emergencies. The outpatients service attends to almost 35,000 people a year and the day hospital has 75,000 users. It has 136 day hospital points, 644 beds and 21 surgeons.

Research centre

This centre also includes teaching activity. It belongs to the UAB’s Medical Faculty and the University Nursing School. The research carried out is another of its hallmarks: 2009 saw the creation of the Sant Pau Biomedical Research Institute, which publishes many works of research. The centre is run by the Foundation Board of Health Management, formed by the Autonomous Government of Catalonia, the City Council and the Archdiocese of Barcelona.
