<div>Two weeks ago, Memorial Medical Center announced nearly $10 million in improvements to our hospital campus – with more to come. Now, our community can begin to see that investment taking shape.Work is well underway on our parking lot restoration, the first visible step in a multi-phase effort that will continue through 2027. The broader investment includes improvements to our hospital exterior and signage, a refresh of our Emergency Department and additional projects to follow — all designed to create a safer, more welcoming and modern environment for the people we serve.But this work is about more than buildings and pavement. It is about strengthening healthcare here at home and investing in our future.These projects build on nearly $13 million we have already invested this year in facilities, equipment and technology, including renovations to our sixth-floor inpatient unit, enhancements to our cardiac catheterization lab and upgrades to campus security and access systems.In the coming weeks, our community will have several opportunities to see this progress firsthand.On Nov. 12, we will celebrate the opening of our brand-new cardiac catheterization lab with a ribbon cutting. The new space and technology will strengthen our ability to provide advanced heart care for patients across southern New Mexico.On Dec. 2, we will mark the opening of our new Adult Intensive Outpatient Program for behavioral health with a community ribbon cutting and open house. The program will help address a critically important community need by expanding access to behavioral health services. We look forward to welcoming our neighbors to tour the space, meet our team and learn more.These milestones reflect different services and investments, but they share a common purpose: making communities healthier by ensuring Las Crucens have access to high-quality care close to home.For more than 75 years, Memorial has been part of Las Cruces and Doña Ana County. That history carries a responsibility to demonstrate our commitment through action, not just words. The investments across our campus are one way we are doing that.Community engagement is also essential to our progress.On Nov. 18, Memorial will hold our annual public Board of Trustees meeting from 6 to 7 p.m. in Conference Room A & B located in the hospital Annex on the west side of campus. I invite community members to join us, hear about the work underway and stay engaged in the future of healthcare in southern New Mexico.As someone who calls Las Cruces home and is proud to be back at this hospital, I care deeply about Memorial and its future. So do the physicians, employees and community partners I have the privilege of working alongside every day.There is more work ahead, but the momentum is real. We are investing in our hospital and expanding access to important services for the people who count on us.A stronger Memorial is taking shape.
