For many years, Trinity Hospital’s Same Day Surgery unit was located
on the building’s third floor, adjacent to the Family Birth Center.
But today, following seven months of construction and remodeling, the
SDS Unit is located one floor directly above that location on the 4th
floor of the hospital. And according to the SDS nurse manager, Kim
Rosencrans, the new space has had very positive reviews from both
patients and staff.
We average about 22 patients per day through this unit – nearly

procedure is performed in the hospital’s Operating Room, many will
return to the SDS Unit until they are discharged later in the day,”
explained Rosencrans.
The new unit features 16 private patient areas
