Harris Health Lyndon B. Johnson (LBJ) Hospital has a long, rich history in Northeast Harris County, providing care in this underserved area.
We’re known for our neonatal intensive care services for high-risk babies. We operate one of the busiest Level III trauma centers in Texas. We are among a short list of U.S. hospitals that has earned Magnet Recognition® for our nursing excellence. And we’ve earned numerous awards for our progressive programs, including our ever-expanding Community Farm at LBJ Hospital, to improve people’s access to compassionate care, healthy foods and chronic care management.
To preserve and expand our impact and to ensure that we meet the future needs of the community, Harris Health is investing in the complete transformation of the LBJ campus.
A recent facility assessment revealed that the 33-year-old hospital is nearing the end of its useful life. Ultimately, the campus plans call for two towers and a parking garage to provide a more comprehensive range of high-level medical, social and mental health care and outpatient services.
Plans for the new campus include:
Harris Health is excited to embark on a transformative initiative to integrate art throughout its facilities. The intent is to use art to enhance both interior and exterior spaces creating an inspiriting and healing environment and one that reflects the values and vision of Harris Health.
Strategic Priorities of the Harris Health Art Program:
The Art Program will harmonize with the new design standards for Harris Health. This initiative is designed to rebuild trust in healthcare providers, promote equity, and ensure that all residents, especially those uninsured or underserved, have access to quality care in a supportive and accessible environment.
As we begin planning the new LBJ Hospital campus, Harris Health and our project partners are committed to engaging the local community and our staff to ensure that we meet the needs and expectations for their new healthcare home.
