About Children’s Hospital Colorado (CHCO): Affiliated with the University of Colorado School of Medicine, CHCO is consistently ranked by U.S. News & World Report as one of the top ten best children’s hospitals in the country. The free-standing hospital is licensed to operate 479-beds and annually performs on average over 19,000 surgeries, logs over 450,000 outpatient visits, and delivers over 100,000 days of inpatient care. CHCO is home to nationally and internationally recognized clinical and research programs, with the Department of Pediatrics consistently ranking as a top academic department for pediatric research funding from the NIH. The Anschutz Medical Campus includes over 5-million square feet of research, educational, and clinical space on 227 acres.

Even better than visiting the Mile High City is calling Denver home. There is no doubt that Denver residents come full circle with a “Mountain West” lifestyle that links them to the great outdoors, where they can enjoy the area’s numerous recreational opportunities, or just sit outside and enjoy the spectacular Rocky Mountain Views. Mix in a sunny climate (the arid conditions bring only 8 to 15 inches of annual precipitation and locals wake up to more than 300 days of sunshine a year) affordable and diverse housing options, moderate cost of living, multitude of education options, a host of cultural venues, professional sports teams, world-class shopping and dining options, and you have one of the country’s best places to live and work.
