Steward Health Care already has a $92m renovation project at St. Joseph’s Medical Center in Houston and a $14m project to improve Odessa Regional Medical Center.
Other initiatives of the organisation in Texas include the rebrand of Southwest General Hospital in San Antonio to Texas Vista Medical Center and technology upgrades at Scenic Mountain Medical Center.
Steward North America president Sanjay Shetty said: “Since relocating our own headquarters to Dallas in 2018 and securing physician ownership just last year, Steward has quickly embraced the pride of being from Texas and, even more so, the mentality that we must all do our part to help our neighbours and community thrive.”
Steward Health Care runs seven hospitals in Texas along with Wadley Regional Medical Center’s second facility in Hope, Arkansas and Glenwood Regional Medical Center in West Monroe, Louisiana.
