Denver Campus
01 Challenge
BHDP worked with Galen College of Nursing to create a one-of-a-kind educational center in Denver, CO. Driven by the need to expand access to education for nurses, Galen wanted an updated, functional, collaborative, and appealing home for future healthcare leaders.
02 Solution
The facility, co-operated by Galen College of Nursing and HCA’s Center for Clinical Advancement, provides nurses the opportunity to hone their clinical skills in a state-of-the-art learning environment. Facilities include a simulation center, skills lab, classrooms, student study spaces and resources spaces, and a community room to ensure student success in a high-tech space. Varied seating across the building provides differentiated areas for studying or relaxing with peers. Artwork lines the walls with positive messaging, and a bright staircase stands as the focal point of the lobby, bringing encouragement to all who walk the halls of Galen Denver.
