Summerlin Hospital Medical Center is a for-profit hospital owned by Universal Health Services and operated by Valley Health System. The hospital, which provides 454 beds, is on Town Center Drive and is located in the village of The Crossings in Summerlin, Nevada.
The campus includes a 200,000-square-foot (19,000 m2) medical office building, and an 80,000-square-foot (7,400 m2) medical office building.
Summerlin Hospital Medical Center was constructed at a cost of $80 million, and was opened on October 16, 1997. The hospital included 148 beds, all located in private rooms. The hospital also had southern Nevada's only hospital-based cancer treatment facility. Vacant space was included in the hospital's design for future expansion.
A new wing for the hospital's intensive care unit opened in late December 1999, as part of a $1.5 million intensive care expansion. The need to expand the hospital came three years earlier than initially expected. At the time, the hospital had 166 beds.
In 2001 the number of available beds was doubled from another expansion.
A four-bed pediatric emergency room was opened in June 2005.
Plans were announced on March 13, 2007 to expand the hospital to 480 beds and add a second medical office building with 80,000 sq ft (7,400 m2) to the campus. The expansion that is projected to cost $100 million entered its last phase with the ground breaking for the patient tower. The ER expansion and the 600 space parking garage have been completed. The expansion was opened in December 2009 and added an additional 173-private patient rooms, an expanded labor and delivery unit, a new state-of-the-art level III Neonatal Intensive Care Unit,and an expanded emergency room with a dedicated Pediatric ER.
The hospital also contains a 17-bed neonatal intensive care unit and a four-bed pediatric emergency room.
