Presbyterian Rio Rancho Medical Center Community Updates

On January 12 and January 13, 2010, Presbyterian held several community information meetings regarding a construction update for the Presbyterian Rio Rancho Medical Center at Maggie Cordova Elementary School.

We had a great turnout and were pleased to share some key milestones, provide details and show our design plans for the new hospital. We also received great questions and feedback on Rio Rancho's first full-service community hospital.
