Texas Health Huguley Hospital held two mock move-in days prior to transporting patients to the new location

New 140-bed hospital built to accommodate future expansion


Texas Health Huguley Hospital Fort Worth South held two mock move-in days prior to transporting patients to the new location, according to an article on the Health Facilities Management website.

Staff and special transport teams moved 84 patients from the original patient tower into the new facility.  

New patient rooms are twice as large as in the original facility. The family-friendly design includes a couch that folds out to a bed in each patient room.

Wireless technology includes a 42-inch smart TV in each room. Educational videos, movies from the rotating library and a range of apps are available.
