BHC Starts Major Lighthing Upgrade

The Broadwater County Hospital District recently approved the funding of a major lighting upgrade for resident and patient rooms at BHC.

Presently the lighting in hospital patient and nursing home resident rooms meets all the regulations, but is considered insufficient for the very best resident /patient experience.

The upgrade will effectively double the amount of light available in the rooms. BHC Medical Director Dr. Nick Campbell noted that an increased level of lighting has been associated with fewer falls in the elderly population.

Sequencing the installation will be a major logistical hurdle, noted CFO Lorrie Vennes, as residents may be asked to temporarily move to another room while work progresses.

Thanks to BCHD for funding this important project.
