UNM Sandoval Regional Medical Center, located in the Rio Rancho City Center, provides the surrounding community with a 200,000-sq-ft acute care facility with 72 inpatient beds, two 24-bed medical/surgical units, 12 intensive care beds and 12 senior behavioral health beds.
Anticipating future need, the master plan includes provisions for the hospital to expand to 300 beds. As a result, the new facility includes many features not ordinarily found in a 72-bed hospital.
