Texas Health Resources to build 5-story hospital tower in southwest Fort Worth
Texas Health Harris Methodist Hospital Southwest Fort Worth announced Wednesday an expansion and renovation.
Texas Health Resources will build a five-story patient tower, which will add 64 beds to the hospital, plus additional space for future growth, according to a news release from the health system. In addition, six operating rooms will be updated to improve surgical services, according to the release. In total, the renovation and expansion is expected to cost $223 million.
Ajith Pai, president of Texas Health Southwest, said the expansion would allow the hospital to better serve the growing communities of the region. The hospital is at 6100 Harris Parkway.
“Southwest Fort Worth and the surrounding communities of Benbrook, Crowley, Aledo and Granbury have grown by leaps and bounds since Texas Health Southwest first opened our doors in 1987 and Texas Health is committed to keeping pace with their growing healthcare needs,” Pai said in a statement.
