Tampa General Hospital (TGH) and Kindred Behavioral Health, a business unit of LifePoint Health, today announced that they have entered into a joint venture partnership to build and operate the new Tampa General Behavioral Health Hospital.
The hospital, a projected investment of $43 million, will employ more than 200 health care professionals. The four-story, 83,000-square-feet facility will include 96 inpatient beds with the potential to expand to 120 beds.
The partnership is the second between TGH and Kindred and represents the next building block in Tampa’s expanding downtown medical district, as the behavioral health hospital will be located adjacent to the TGH Rehabilitation Hospital, an 80-bed inpatient rehabilitation facility being constructed in partnership with Kindred Rehabilitation Services. Kindred Rehabilitation Services and Kindred Behavioral Health currently operate more than 30 such joint venture, specialty hospitals across 17 states. Read more.
