Huntsman Cancer Institute

From its earliest days, the institute was envisioned as an oasis for those facing the challenges of cancer. That vision is evident throughout the hospital, where beauty is thoughtfully incorporated into the healing experience. Glass walls fill the complex with natural light, rich hardwood accents create warmth, and patient rooms overlook the breathtaking Wasatch Mountains. Museum-quality artwork, including an extensive collection of American Indian artwork, can be found throughout the facility, providing moments of inspiration and reflection.

The commitment to creating a healing environment extends to sustainability as well. The Kathryn F. Kirk Center for Comprehensive Cancer Care and Women’s Cancers has achieved LEED Gold certification, recognizing its thoughtful approach to sustainable design and construction. It is a reflection of Huntsman’s broader belief that the spaces where people receive care should support both well-being and the future of the community.

Huntsman brings research into its facility, expanding patient care. Skybridges connect the hospital with research buildings, creating spaces where patients, clinicians, and scientists cross paths. This intentional design fosters collaboration and helps translate scientific discoveries into meaningful advances in cancer treatment.

The institute also recognizes that cancer affects entire families. Thus, its Wellness and Integrative Health Center offers services such as art and music therapy, exercise programs, and cooking classes, while thoughtful amenities,including sleeping accommodations, kitchens, and laundry facilities, help make extended stays more comfortable for patients and caregivers.
