FRANKLIN, Ind. – The Johnson Memorial Health Board of Trustees recently approved plans to build a new, state-of-the-art emergency/outpatient services facility and a new, comprehensive rehabilitation center on the Johnson Memorial Hospital campus in Franklin, Tennessee.
The $42-million dollar project, the largest in Johnson Memorial Health’s history, will completely re-shape the east side of the campus with the new emergency/outpatient facility, replacing the original 1947 hospital building. The new rehabilitation center will be constructed on the undeveloped west end of the campus. Construction is expected to begin in 2017.
The new emergency/outpatient services addition will feature a 17,400-square-foot emergency department and over 33,000 square feet of additional space for outpatient services including radiology, laboratory and wellness activities. The new rehabilitation center will contain 20,400 square feet that will house physical, occupational and speech therapy/rehabilitation services, as well as orthopedic care services.
Cripe will oversee the project’s architecture and engineering requirements. Completion is expected by 2020.
