Originally constructed in Douglas County in 2003, a county which up until then had been without an acute care hospital, Sky Ridge Medical Center had been providing services for the south metro Denver community for a decade when this project began. The catalyst to this expansion effort was a desire to meet the needs of the growing community with expanded care availability and also allow the hospital to serve beyond the community by becoming a destination hospital known for its best in care practices.
The magnitude of the scope for the Women’s Center and Surgery Department addition cannot be understated. From a big picture standpoint the project included a 116,000 square foot multi-wing/multistory vertical expansion, a 19,500 square foot horizontal expansion, and 59,000 square feet of renovation. This encompassed:
- 90 Bed MedSurg Expansion
- Expansion of 4 Operating Rooms
- Expansion of the Spine and Joint Center
- Expansion of the CUP with new chiller, generator, boilers and 5 new air handlers
- Atrium Addition
- 20 Bed Labor and Delivery Expansion
- 28 Bed NICU Expansion
- Medical Records Renovation
- Pharmacy Renovation to become space for Materials Management
- PACU Renovation
- Central Sterile Renovation
- Addition of 2 C-Section and Pre-op rooms
