Rose Medical Center Reopens Freestanding Emergency Room in Central Park

Denver, CO, February 14, 2024 --(PR.com)-- Rose Medical Center is proud to announce the reopening of its freestanding emergency room at Northfield Boulevard and Wabash Street, after resources were consolidated during the COVID-19 pandemic. The reopening offers greater access to the high-quality, emergency care services residents of Central Park (formerly known as Stapleton), northeast Denver, and neighboring communities, as well as commuters on the I-70 corridor expect.

“We are pleased to reopen our Central Park ER, allowing us to provide the highest level of emergency care to patients in an area that greatly needs closer facilities,” said Casey Guber, President and CEO of Rose Medical Center. “With emergencies, every second counts, and the convenient location means we can impact the overall health of travelers and residents alike. We are excited to expand the values of Rose Medical Center—excellent care for everybody, a focus on utmost safety, and compassion for our community—to the northeast Denver neighborhood.”

As a full-service emergency department, the Central Park ER is staffed 24 hours a day, 365 days a year by board-certified doctors and specially trained nurses to perform critical and emergency care for patients of all ages. Onsite imaging and laboratory services, as well as a full spectrum of services to care for the whole family, are available. Additionally, the facility offers access to Rocky Mountain Hospital for Children (RMHC) and can quickly connect to the pediatric emergency physicians at RMHC at any time. The facility is equipped to receive ambulances and respond to trauma and resuscitation needs.

The Central Park ER is now open to provide lifesaving care – day or night – and the highest-level care, convenient to home for the growing Denver metro community. Located at 4930 Wabash Street, the Central Park ER, joins the main Rose Medical Center ER, located at 4567 East 9th Avenue, in providing convenient, high-level emergency care for the entire community.
