Hartford HealthCare (HHC) has opened a new Connecticut Orthopaedic Institute at MidState Medical Center in Meriden for care and recovery of patients with musculoskeletal injuries and disorders.
An entire pavilion of the medical center is being renovated and repurposed for orthopaedic patients and their guests. Once fully complete later this year, the institute will be 14,500 square feet, including 11 operating rooms and newly redesigned and upgraded space.
Hartford HealthCare and MidState Medical Center are collaborating with Connecticut Orthopaedic Specialists, which HHC said is the largest orthopaedics practice in the state, and Comprehensive Orthopaedics and Musculoskeletal Care, a group of board-certified surgeons, to develop the institute, which is tabbed as a “hospital within a hospital.”
