From The Springfield State Journal-Register: Southern Illinois University School of Medicine’s year-old
SimmonsCooper Cancer Institute building will remain vacant indefinitely — a victim of the state’s ongoing fiscal crisis. The new building is designed to be headquarters for about 55 SIU
doctors and related support staff. It would include a chemotherapy infusion area
with 20 stations, 23 exam rooms and four minor-procedure rooms. There
also will be an on-site laboratory, a conference room, a family and
patient learning resource center and a small cafe.
