Platte Valley Medical Center (PVMC) became the first private general medical-surgical hospital in Adams and Southern Weld Counties in 1960. For 47 years, Platte Valley Medical Center was located on seven acres at 18th and Bridge Street in Brighton. In 2007, Platte Valley Medical Center moved to a 50-acre campus at I-76 and 144th Avenue.
Today, PVMC is one of the nation’s top performing hospitals with a mission to foster optimal health for all.
Facility Size:
There are three, 3-story buildings with more than 287,301 square feet on the campus. The buildings include a 78-bed patient tower, a diagnostics and treatment building, and a 58,319 square foot medical office building for physician offices and specialty services. The full campus is designed with the future buildout potential of six stories and 300 beds to make PVMC a full-scale regional medical center.
