BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mrs. BEATTY. Mr. Speaker, I rise today proudly to enter into the Congressional Record that the Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center cut the ribbon and opened the University Hospital today with 820 large private rooms sitting 26 stories high.

Mr. Speaker, I thank the Ohio State University's president, Ted Carter, and our CEO of the Wexner Medical Center, Dr. John J. Warner, for making not only my district but central Ohio and this country healthier. As we are in this time in need of better healthcare, I thank them for understanding the healthcare needs of the citizens of the Third Congressional District.

It is, Mr. Speaker, the only IV maternity care hospital in central Ohio. It includes 16 labor and delivery rooms and 51 NICU rooms. It is in partnership with Nationwide Children's Hospital. We salute Columbus because it is stronger and healthier because of this investment.
