St. Mary's Hospital & Regional Medical Center is the only provider of many critical health care services in western Colorado and eastern Utah. Believing that advanced medical care should be available close to home and family, St. Mary's has focused on developing medical services equal to those found in large metropolitan areas and academic medical centers. In 2010, St. Mary's opened a new 12-story Hospital on its existing campus to further enhance the patient care environment, accommodate current and emerging technologies, and meet the health care needs of the area's growing population.
