Following more than three years of construction and decades of planning, the second campus of Intermountain Primary Children’s Hospital has opened for patient care in Lehi, Utah. The campus includes an outpatient center, trauma center, medical office building, and a five-story, 66-bed, 486,000-square-foot primary children’s hospital.
Named Larry H. & Gail Miller Family Campus, it is a full-service children’s hospital providing nearly all the same specialty pediatric services that patients receive at Intermountain Primary Children’s Hospital in Salt Lake City. Medical staff will be fully integrated with the pediatric specialists at University of Utah Health, who will continue to work collaboratively with Primary Children’s caregivers to provide the highest level of pediatric care to patients at the new campus.
The project team included Jacobsen Construction, VCBO Architecture and Page Southerland Page.
