San Antonio-based Methodist Healthcare System invested $75 million to reopen a shuttered San Antonio hospital before the end of the month, per Becker’s.
The hospital, formerly known as Forest Park Medical Center, has been closed since 2015. The COVID-19 pandemic delayed Methodist’s construction and reopening plans.
After redevelopment, the new Methodist Hospital Landmark location will have 54 beds, 12 operating rooms and 27 private patient rooms.
“All of the Methodist Healthcare hospitals are dealing with capacity challenges due to growth in the market and demand for our services,” said Methodist Hospital Landmark CEO Ryan Simpson. “This facility allows us to have more capacity as a system. It happens to be in a growing part of the city.”
