Lutheran Medical Center is a hospital in Wheat Ridge, Colorado.

History

On May 6, 1903, members of St. John's Lutheran Church in Denver met to begin planning a TB sanitarium for the region.[2] In 1905, the Evangelical Lutheran Sanitarium, a tent colony for tuberculosis patients, opened in Wheat Ridge, a few miles west of Denver's city limits. As the demand for tuberculosis treatment waned, the facility moved toward serving Jefferson County as a general medical facility. Lutheran Hospital opened in 1961 and grew along with the county, expanding significantly in 1964 and 1968. The 1970s brought a name change to Lutheran Medical Center, a six floor tower addition in 1973, and expansion of the Critical Care Unit in 1985.[3]

In 1997, Lutheran Medical Center, Saint Joseph Hospital and the Primera Healthcare physician group integrated to form Exempla Healthcare.[4]

In 2010, a new 12 room operating suite, an 18-bed recovery room and a 24-bed pre-surgery area opened in the five-story North Pavilion addition, as part of a five-year building project that added 295,000 square feet to the campus.[5]
