Henderson Hospital in Henderson, Nevada is on schedule for opening day on October 31, 2016. The design and construction teams are working side-by-side on a daily basis to complete over a quarter million square feet of this new hospital facility. HMC Architects collaborated with medical professionals and constructors to take part in the design process of the new hospital, focusing on the present and future healthcare needs of Southern Nevada and utilizing a Lean project delivery method in collaboration with Turner Construction Company. 

Henderson Hospital will serve as the anchor of Union Village, the first Integrated Health Village in the world. Listed as the top healthcare building project in the U.S. by Health Facilities Management, the visionary model for healthcare will offer a world-class hospital complex and health center, residential, entertainment and specialty retail space, a vibrant senior retirement community and a civic and cultural arts center integrated into a master-planned community.
