Lake Health Celebrates Grand Opening of TriPoint Medical Center
Date:10/21/2009

Families are at the very center of the TriPoint healing environment. Along with 24-hour unrestricted visitation, every patient room includes a "family zone" with sleeper sofa and Internet access, and every floor offers "nourishment nooks" and glassed-in respite areas where visitors can de-compress, renewing body and spirit amid natural light and outdoor views. Inside and out, space is set aside to help families cope with the stress of a loved one's hospitalization: a Meditation Room with a relaxing water feature, a fireside seating area, an outdoor healing garden with water sculpture, courtyard dining with waterfall and a rotating art gallery.

At TriPoint Medical Center, the Tim and Sandy Weaver Family Birthing Unit is designed specifically to enhance the safety, comfort and convenience of moms, newborns and families.

The 14 private rooms are built around the LDRP model, meaning that moms stay in the same room through labor, delivery, recovery, and post-partum.

The unit also includes The Hershey Foundation Family Lounge, two operating rooms for Cesarean sections, three beds for pre-term testing, two private ante-partum rooms, a Newborn Nursery, and a six-bed Level II Special Care Nursery.

The Level II Special Care Nursery at TriPoint Medical Center has six private rooms, each with a sleeping area set up for one parent. Moms often stay at the hospital when their baby needs special care, so the unit offers showers, a lounge with a TV and a special family center with a washer and dryer. Mini nurses' stations between each pair of rooms in the Level II area allow nurses to remain near the babies in their care.

To protect infants, the family birthing unit is locked at all times. A greeter allows entry to appropriate visitors. In addition, Lake Health has installed a sophisticated HUGS infant security system at TriPoint.
