COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (Jan. 10, 2014) \u2013 After a transitional year that included a needs assessment and numerous strategic discussions,\u00a0UCHealth and Children’s Hospital Colorado (Children’s Colorado) are pleased to announce a master facilities plan that would include expansion of both pediatric and adult services throughout Colorado Springs and southern Colorado. Components include expanding pediatric urgent care in Colorado Springs and exploring building a new free-standing children’s hospital adjacent to Memorial Hospital North.<\/p>\n

Editors and reporters: Mike Scialdone, President and CEO of Memorial Hospital, and Jim Shmerling, CEO of Children\u2019s Hospital Colorado, will be available for interviews at 11 a.m. today at Memorial Hospital Central, 1400 E. Boulder St. Please meet our staff at the Boulder Street entrance. Complimentary valet is available.<\/p>\n

While in the early stages of exploration, such a plan aims to meet the growing health care needs of southern Colorado. Additionally, a project of this scope is expected to drive economic development and new jobs. UCHealth and Children’s Colorado will be working with city officials and incorporating input from the community and key stakeholders along the way.<\/p>\n

“In 2012 Colorado Springs voters placed their overwhelming support in UCHealth and Children’s Colorado, two nationally recognized organizations, to operate Memorial Hospital and to elevate health care for Colorado Springs,” said Mike Scialdone, President and CEO of Memorial Hospital. “This partnership helps us fulfill that promise and continue to deliver on the vision to make Memorial Hospital a regional and statewide leader in health care.”<\/p>\n

“Children’s Colorado and UCHealth have worked diligently over the past year to honor the community’s trust by investing in new equipment, infrastructure, staff and physicians,” said Children’s Colorado CEO Jim Shmerling. “We’re excited to take this next step and deliver on our shared mission to improve lives and elevate patient care for children and teens in our community.”<\/p>\n

As plans move forward, UCHealth and Children’s Colorado will work with the community, medical staff, and city leadership on the expansion of medical services throughout southern Colorado.<\/p>\n
