Providence opens two new surgical suites
Two new surgical suites have opened at Providence Everett Medical Center’s Colby Campus in Everett.

The suites, designed for minimally invasive surgery, were funded by a grant from the Providence General Foundation and include:

• Moveable, ceiling-mounted, flat-screen video displays.
• A tank farm containing carbon dioxide tanks for delivery at consistent pressure to the insufflator, a device that inflates the abdomen.
• All equipment on ceiling-mounted columns, which encloses all wiring and gas lines to provide easier access and a less cluttered work area.
