Colorado is home to over 100 hospitals of all shapes, sizes and specialties. To wrap up this #HospitalWeek, we want to say #thankyou to the dedicated hospital staff, both clinical and nonclinical, that care for our communities.

#Hospitals are an economic mainstay, supporting 16.5 million jobs across the US. Here in Colorado, hospitals are a top employer in many communities and the #1 job creator in 11 out of 14 regions. #HospitalWeek
