Memorial Hermann Katy Hospital is a hospital in unincorporated Harris County, Texas, near Katy and in Greater Houston.[1] It is a part of the Memorial Hermann Healthcare System. Pediatric care to the hospital is provided by doctors from Children's Memorial Hermann Hospital which treats infants, children, teens, and young adults age 0-21.
The hospital was established in the 1980s. In 1999 Memorial Hermann acquired the hospital.[2]
In 1999 Memorial Hermann Hospital purchased a plot of land from HCA Inc. It established the Katy Hospital there.[3] The hospital, licensed for 118 beds, was on Pin Oak Road in Katy, west of Katy Mills Mall.[4] The hospital there had 100000square feet of space.[5] In 2005 the hospital system put the ex-HCA land and the campus on it for sale.[3] A daylong move to the new $98 million facility occurred on Saturday December 9, 2006. The current hospital has about 300000square feet of space.[5]
In October 2013 the hospital held a groundbreaking for a 100000square feet patient tower. Construction of the facility, with an estimated cost of $70 million began in early 2014, and began accommodating patients in January 2016. It has increased the hospital's bed count from 144 to over 200. The new tower has a larger ICU and IMU, new laboratory facilities, has increased number of surgical suits, a Level III NICU, a new cardiac catheterization lab, additional office space, and room for approximately 80 more patient care rooms.
Professional building 2 was constructed in 2014/15 and was completed in the fall of 2015.
