The streets of Rio Rancho are bit busier during the transition of Summer, as that precarious time of year rolls in with radio, TV, newspaper and other advertisements indicating the winding down of a perfectly good summer. A sense of urgency is created as high spirited, shiny, colorful ads sing the praises of outfitting yourself with brand new goods, fresh stuff, essentials in the way of school supplies, clothes, transportation and food.
Families figure out ways to get the kids to school, is the school bus an option or can someone drop them off and pick them up? High school age students and adults enroll in classes in an effort to propel themselves further along in their chosen fields of interest. From books and schedules to aspiring athletes trying-out for their respective sport to musicians and singers auditioning for the band or choir, school pictures and fund raisers, theatre goings-on, concert performances, Homecoming festivities and various competitions; all components set-up to compliment scholastic achievements as students and families engage in the whole eduacational experience.

    School seems to define us when we are in the middle of it, everything evolves around it. It is  necessary to our understanding of the world and our bridge of hope for a good life.  With school comes more options, opportunities and possibilities to propel ourselves into the next level. The quality of life is enhanced with education and learning, positive growth and healthy physical, mental and intellectual development takes place. The education process can be simple at once fantastic and challenging, always with the potential to change lives for the better, far into the future.

Watching and Waiting

The new UNM Sandoval County Regional Medical Center continues to grow at the same strong and steady pace that Rio Rancho itself has been growing over the past 10 years. Every detail is being addressed now to ensure the 200,00 sq ft medical center and additional 40,000 sq ft near-by, medical office is staffed, equipped, and prepared to offer state of the art health care to those who need it.
From six large operating rooms to over a dozen intensive care rooms and behavioral crisis intervention facilities. The hospital's five stories will be home to a trauma and emergency department, joint replacement and obesity management services and women's health services. Well over 400 employees will be hired to operate and manage the hospital.

Kevin Rogols, SCRMC CEO consulted with the American Indian pueblos and chapter houses regarding the artwork that will line the walls and welcome patients, visitors and staff. Tribal art will be seen in prominent places throughout the facility.

In the meantime we watch with eager anticipation and wait with patience for the project to be complete, in the Summer of 2012.

Port In The Storm

A medical center is like a treasure chest of resources available to the public, in the name of good health. People look upon hospitals as a port in a storm, an oasis in the desert, a beacon in the night, rescuer and refuge. A medical facility holds many a possible cure, prevention, detection and answer to a wide range of problems. The potential to make a difference, sometimes between life and death- for many people, is always in place as the new Sandoval Regional Med Center prepares to  make a profound impact on the lives of the patients and visitors as well as students, teachers, researchers, staff, faculty and administrators. *It takes a village and very dedicated people to raise a hospital, especially since the hospital is such an important part of the village and represents a microcosm of the world.

The new University of New Mexico Hospital in Rio Rancho is shaping-up and stands stately near Rio Rancho City Hall, Rio Rancho High School and the thriving city.
The public medical center will be home to a state of art School of Pharmacy, Speciality Clinics and Therapeutic Departments, Hospital services range from Behavioral Health, Medical and Surgical to a wide array of learning and career development opportunities for the community.
