The new Einstein Medical Center Montgomery in East Norriton is slated to open its doors on Sept. 29, but local media got the chance to tour the full-service, acute-care hospital on Thursday.

Patch tagged along with four aspiring journalists from Ms. Sortino's 4th Grade class at Gotwals Elementary as they interviewed executives and were treated to hands-on demonstrations of the amenities in patient rooms, the state of the art maternity ward and NICU. The kids even got to try out the cutting-edge DaVinci Surgical Sytem. The 4th Graders were working on an assignment for their Healthy News student publication.

Einstein is hosting a Community Day on Sept. 22, from 1 to 5 p.m. to give the rest of the community a peak at what's in store for them when they need hospital care. The day will feature tours of the facility, free health screenings and info and family activities and refreshments.
