walls. This year, Memorial Hospital opened the areas only Pediatric Intensive Care Unit at
the Lauren Small Childrens Medical Center and welcomed patients and visitors through
the new Einstein Pavilion. Mercy Southwest

one of only a handful in the state, and expanded
its Emergency Room, adding 8 state-of-art private
patient rooms. At Mercy Downtown, the new Pavilion
Garden takes center stage located just o the
hospitals lobby.
As Kerns largest healthcare provider, we are
committed to a healthier community, oering agrowing list of wellness and preventive programs,
