Longmont United Hospital - Features

Longmont United Hospital is dedicated to making our communities a better place to live, work, and raise a family -- one patient at a time. That dedication transcends our programs, treatments, services and our staff. It means providing our patients with extraordinary, sophisticated and state of the art care close to your home or workplace with unique treatment options that honor the whole person and enhance the healing experience.

Our dedication to improving the health and well-being of the communities and people we serve will always be our number one goal.

From state-of-the-art Heart Care services to the nurturing comfort of our Birthplace, we surpass the expectations of care and value. Whether you're in need of inpatient care, outpatient care, emergency care or long-term care treatment, we offer the services and expertise to meet your health care needs. In addition we extend care to our communities through a variety of programs. Our community programs can help you cope with illness, develop a sustainable fitness program, overcome depression or prevent traumatic injuries. All a part of keeping our communities healthy places to live.

Healthcare at Longmont United Hospital is more than treating a patient's physical needs. Health, wellness and healing require the gentle understanding of the powerful connection between a patient's body, mind and spirit.

Our philosophy, known as Planetree, is tangible and teachable. This Planetree philosophy empowers patients and their families to be involved in decisions affecting their care. We listen to our patients and structure care around their needs and desires. Planning and developing our programs and services includes input from our communities, physicians, staff and patients. This input gives us the opportunity to increase the wellness of our communities and put the patient's needs first. The soul soothing rhythms played by our music therapists, our family dining rooms on each floor or the healing massages offered to our patients are just a few examples of the unique options to enhance healing.
