Finishing touches are being put on Memorial Hospital North; a hospital that is much needed for residents of northeastern Colorado Springs.

The next closest hospital is Sky Ridge to the north all the way to Denver, and then Penrose Main Hospital more to the center part of I-25," said Emergency Department Manager Hope Darrow. The facility is being called a patient-center environment, where comfort is one of the main focuses; but it is not the only plus. The new facility will have the latest technology. The Labor/Delivery/Recovery/Postpartum Center (LDRP) is one of the areas that combines comfort and technology. Besides having a flat-screen television and a Jacuzzi, each LDRP room has all the hook-ups for a newborn to recover in the same room as the mother.
