Big news for pediatric emergency care at Saint Joseph Hospital! 💙

Saint Joseph Hospital has earned the COPPER Pediatric Emergency Room Designation, recognizing our commitment to providing high-quality, specialized emergency care for children.

We're also proud to share that our Northglenn freestanding emergency department has earned COPPER designation, becoming the first and only freestanding emergency department in the region to receive this recognition.

From child-focused care practices to specially trained caregivers and family-centered support, these designations reflect our commitment to ensuring infants, children and adolescents receive the right care when they need it most.
