LAS VEGAS — Intermountain Health has broken ground on Nevada's first stand-alone children's hospital, the Intermountain Health Felicia and Ben Horowitz Children’s Hospital, marking a significant step in strengthening pediatric healthcare in the state. The hospital, expected to open in 2030, will be situated on a 33-acre campus with an initial 180-bed inpatient tower expandable to 228 beds. It will offer specialized services including neonatal care, pediatric and cardiac intensive care, emergency and trauma care, orthopedics, cancer and bone marrow transplant services, behavioral health, and advanced medical and surgical care for children.

The hospital is part of a broader vision to unify pediatric care and standards across Nevada, aiming to close gaps in care and build a stronger future for children statewide. Supported by a $150 million philanthropic commitment and community efforts, it will serve families in Nevada and surrounding states. Mitch Cloward, Intermountain Health region president, said “To all the providers, caregivers, and families, we want this children’s hospital to serve as a beacon for what’s possible” as the project advances toward completion. The hospital also represents an investment in attracting healthcare talent and expanding care availability for generations to come.
