Madigan Army Medical Center has been in its current location on Joint Base Lewis-McChord, Wash., since 1992. In the three decades since its opening, the Maternal Child Health – commonly referred to as the Mother/Baby – Unit, has welcomed a lot of Army “brats” into the world. The new digs the unit is opening this week are nicer than ever. Years of planning and nearly two years of remodeling have repurposed old patient rooms on the third floor of the hospital tower that had been used as offices for years. Now, they are bright and homey patient rooms. “This is really focused towards providing that family-centered environment – we have ample space, ample seating for everybody,” said Lt. Col. Anne Daniele, the department chief for Maternal Child Health. The rooms have “ambient lighting, so it’s just warm and inviting, it doesn’t look as sterile. I know this sounds very silly, but we got new flat screen TVs, whereas on the other side they had, like this bedside TV that the patients could use,” she continued.
