I was so impressed with their infectious disease sensitivity, touchdown stations, and person of size rooms. Not to mention their ability to shut down individual floor pods with the touch of a button and the thoughtful location of their OR right above their ER waiting room. But my favorite feature was their germ and dust-reducing blinds built in between the panels of glass instead of outside of them.

Not to mention their 8 ambulance entrances, 10 trauma bays, 3 CT machines, and more.
