Talking points

The most important message we can send City Council is that we want Advent Health in our community.  Here are a few ways to communicate that.

The next chapter of Baseline includes a place to heal. AdventHealth Broomfield will be built at the southwest corner of I-25 and CO 7, right at Baseline’s doorstep. The six-story, 200-bed hospital will focus on providing high-quality care close to home, with a broad range of services to meet the community’s needs. Planned services include medical and surgical inpatient care, intensive care, emergency care, women’s services, surgery and imaging. We anticipate opening as a Level III trauma center.
The campus is designed with pedestrian connections throughout and links to the surrounding trail network that already exists at Baseline. It also sits near the Thornton Broomfield Mobility Hub and the Bustang North Line, so getting here will be easier than ever. This project will also trigger long-desired infrastructure improvements along Highway 7, helping ease traffic flow in a growing corridor.

The design brings daylight, nature, and art together to create a healing environment. Earth tones, cast stone, and wood-look accents draw on Colorado’s palette from plains to peaks and will fit into the Baseline community seamlessly. The project plans to preserve more than 25% of the site as open area, helping keep Baseline’s green, open feel intact as the community grows.

Hospitals are a natural generator of economic impact through job creation, construction
investment, and purchasing multiplier effects in the surrounding community. Once
complete, the hospital and medical office building are expected to bring 900 new jobs to
Broomfield. The campus also aligns with the city’s vision as laid out in the Comprehensive Plan for this area by increasing employment and community-serving uses near transit, and it helps finish the southern edge of Highway 7, a longstanding city goal. This project will also serve as a catalyst for growth across Baseline and the region, because a hospital anchors the kind of daytime activity and foot traffic that will help to support nearby shops and restaurants, including the upcoming Center Street development.

Sustainability has always shaped how Baseline is planned, and AdventHealth’s campus is
designed to share that commitment through native landscaping, EV-ready parking, bicycle parking, and trail connections.
AdventHealth will also adopt Baseline’s Pollinator District guidelines, planting landscaping that supports pollinator habitat and working hand in hand with Baseline and the Butterfly Pavilion to meet them. It is a direct contribution to the community’s work to grow the local
pollinator population.

The campus is also designed to run on geothermal energy. A field of 342 wells, each 800
feet deep, taps the earth’s steady underground temperature to heat and cool the building.
Compared to a code-baseline gas boiler and chiller, the design is projected to:

  • Emit about 62% less CO₂ over 30 years, avoiding roughly 32,000 metric tons
  • Use 26% less energy than the Colorado code baseline

The design also includes energy recovery wheels on the air handlers and geothermal heat-pump domestic hot water, and it meets Colorado’s Low Energy & Carbon Code.

This is just another part of the 1,100-acre Baseline community that includes parks, schools, trails, and a growing town center. A tangible example of this investment is the relocation of Huron to its ultimate location, thereby opening the entire east side of Baseline to development well in advance of what had been anticipated. Supporting this project means investing in the long-term vision for the whole region.
