Grossman Burn Center moves to West Hills Hospital & Medical Center in West Hills

On Saturday, July 17, 2010, the Grossman Burn Center will relocate to West Hills Hospital & Medical Center in West Hills, CA.

“All the things we have learned in the more than 40 years the Grossman Burn Center has been treating patients went into designing this new facility”

The new Grossman Burn Center at West Hills Hospital features a Dedicated Burn Intensive Care Unit, new and larger hyperbaric chambers, hydrotherapy, and special VDR-4 ventilators. It also offers opportunities for enhanced research and public education capabilities.

"All the things we have learned in the more than 40 years the Grossman Burn Center has been treating patients went into designing this new facility," said Dr. Peter Grossman, co-director of the Grossman Burn Center. "To the patient community that we are privileged to serve—from fire fighters and first responders to people from all walks of life and every corner of the globe—we have always promised and delivered our best, but I am pleased to say that our best just got even better."

West Hills Hospital & Medical Center CEO, Beverly Gilmore, commented, "West Hills Hospital has proudly served the community with the highest standards in healthcare for more than 40 years, and moving the prestigious Grossman Burn Center to our facility demonstrates our commitment to providing the best for our patients. Great things are happening at West Hills."

Dr. Peter H. Grossman added, "The professionals and executives at West Hills Hospital and Medical Center have demonstrated an unwavering commitment to creating a truly world-class health care facility here in West Hills. With the recent openings of the hospital's new Emergency Department and its new Intensive Care Unit, as well as the addition of the Grossman Burn Center, I think it is fair to say that they have met that commitment and then some."
