About

Located at 7601 Preston Road in Plano, the center sits on a site with "green space" preserved to provide an environment for patients and families. The hospital currently has 72 beds with an infrastructure for 240 beds, eight operating rooms, four procedure rooms, 24-7 emergency services and laboratory, pharmacy and imaging services. Completed in 2008, it has a family resource library where patients and families have access to print and digital consumer health information, children's literature and personalized research assistance. In addition to translation, pastoral care and guest relations services, families also have access to the specially trained child life specialists and playrooms designed just for children. In early 2020, it was announced that the center would undergo an expansion to construct a new patient tower. The tower would increase the bed count to 240 and add 300,000 square feet. The project is expected to be complete by 2023.
