Searching for a designer for the Pasohlávky rehabilitation institute for half a billion

Brno – The company Thermal Pasohlávky, founded by the South Moravian Region and the municipality of Pasohlávky, is seeking a designer for the documentation of the planned construction of a treatment institute costing approximately half a billion crowns. Milan Vojta (ANO), the regional councilor for health, told ČTK today. About 300 million for the establishment of the Sanatorium Pálava treatment institute in Pasohlávky in the Brno region should be covered by funds from the sale of nearby land. The remaining costs will be covered by the region and potential state grants. The institute, with 160 beds, is set to offer inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation care. The expected launch is in 2024.

Currently, there is a tender announced for processing the project documentation to obtain a building permit. "The project of the specialized treatment institute is one of the priorities of the region. I am glad that its preparation is continuing. In the future, a key task will be to ensure the financing of its construction," said Governor Bohumil Šimek (for ANO). "There is a lack of similar sanatoriums in the region and in Vysočina. Nevertheless, people need to start rehabilitation right after surgery; otherwise, everything will be in vain. The institute will serve after orthopedic and surgical procedures, but also after strokes," Vojta said.

Initially, the institute was estimated to cost between 300 and 400 million, but now the costs are projected to reach up to half a billion. "This is because it includes building accommodation for staff," Vojta added.

The institute will be created near the planned spa complex that the Chinese company RiseSun is preparing in Pasohlávky. The spa complex, originally estimated to cost up to two billion crowns, is expected to be completed by 2026. RiseSun has already purchased the necessary land from Thermal Pasohlávky for this purpose. It is from this money that Thermal Pasohlávky will pay part of the costs for building the treatment institute.
