The nurse treatment center at Highlands Ranch brings nurses together in one location to better serve patients and to support the physicians' practice. Registered nurses, as well as licensed practical nurses, will provide a wide range of nursing services including treatment, hydration, medication administration and education. Physicians will be readily available for consultation and are working collaboratively with nurses to support the care patients will receive at the nurse treatment center.
Patients at Highlands Ranch Medical Offices can choose physicians in internal medicine, family practice, obstetrics and gynecology, pediatrics, eye care and allergy. The Highlands Ranch Medical Offices are expected to serve 11,000 Kaiser Permanente members in the next two years with growth projected to reach 30,000 members in the next ten years. The medical offices will serve new members living in south metro Denver as well as current members who find it more convenient to them.
