Avant-garde Technology for High Complexity Diseases For La Sabana, medical innovation is not stopping at research, but rather includes the latest tech developments in the medicine field, constant infrastructure upgrades and updates, implementation of robotics and automation as well as any improvement in the rehabilitation field. Being in control and up to date in these areas are also a key factor keeping La Sabana among Colombia and Latin America’s leading hospitals and rehabilitation facilities. “The medical center’s rehab unit is currently the best equipped in Colombia, our hydrotherapy and electrotherapy units are one-of-its-kind in our country, and we are introducing robotics into rehabilitation,” the doctor remarked. The hospitals’ improvements include replacing old medical equipment in the radiology area. Some investments for 2016 will be destined to acquire a new CT and MRI machines as well as imaging equipment. In late 2015 the new emergency unit will be ready to open; huge efforts in the marketing and PR fields are being performed to enhance this event and the hospital’s new corporate identity.
