To Progress Garden parties are often held to celebrate life s major milestones. The one at UCI Medical Center was no exception. Surrounded by flowers and trees, special guests walked along the picturesque brick promenade that links UCI Medical Center s emergency room to the main hospital.
Inscribed benches border the garden.
The result is a quiet oasis for patients and family a place to stop and rest in the midst of a turbulent world. As beautiful as the garden is, however, the most important out-come of the fundraising campaign was the remodeling of the emergency department. With the multi-million dollar renovation including enlarged quarters and more pleasant waiting and triage areas the facility is now an emergency center that s second to none. However, more are now available in other quiet enclaves throughout the medical center campus.
