The Cobos Medical Center is in Bogota, Columbia and was inaugurated on October 2018 by Compensar and Universidad del Bosque. The clinic is 49,000 square meters, and has four floors that include: 313 hospital beds, four intensive care units (surgical, medical, pediatric and neonatal), nine operating rooms (general and high complexity), and emergencies, diagnostic images, clinical laboratory and pathology.
The Clinic also includes two hemodynamic rooms and specialty care units such as cardiology, gastroenterology, pneumology, pediatrics, gynecology, obstetrics, urology, oncology, orthopedics, neurosurgery, metabolic surgery and nuclear medicine.
Compassionate Treatment that makes a difference
To create an environment where patients and their families feel at peace, Compensar and Universidad del Bosque sought to design a space (or building) at Los Cobos Medical Center focused on creating a natural environment that met the highest level of the international processes and that complied with the national regulations.
The complex has different spaces with lighting and natural ventilation so that patients can enjoy both beautiful interior environments and the benefits of the outside world from their rooms in a design that promotes social recreation. They also have views of terraces and gardens that allows the patients to forget about the traditional gray and cold spaces that are often found in hospitals and clinics. The warm and bright environment create a conducive atmosphere for healing to occur.
