About the Brain Tumor Center
The Brain Tumor Center is located on the second floor of Norton Cancer Institute – Brownsboro, a state-of-the-art care facility that opened in 2018. Features that set Norton Cancer Institute – Brownsboro apart include:
- Streamlined registration and preregistration through the use of electronic registration and self-check-in kiosks.
- Curved main corridors and strategic use of colors, textures and materials to facilitate wayfinding.
- The combined use of natural daylight and 100% LED lighting to support a more natural, less clinical feel.
- White noise and music in key locations, along with special ceiling tiles and recycled denim insulation to dampen noise and enhance acoustics.
- Improved efficiency through the use of collaborative care “team rooms” and infusion rooms designed as pods around centrally located nursing stations.
- Amenities such as personal technology charging stations, central nourishment stations, wireless internet access, a meditation room, healing garden and bistro.
Norton Cancer Institute – Brownsboro was made possible by generous donors to the Norton Healthcare Foundation.
