Recognition of a donation from Vince Young and B2Z Engineering to Dell Children’s Medical Center North located in Williamson County.

Background

During a grand opening celebration for B2Z’s Austin office, attendees were invited to participate in a silent auction benefiting the new Dell Children’s Medical Center North.  B2Z matched all donations.

May 13th, 2021 marked the groundbreaking for the new, full-service, free-standing pediatric hospital, Dell Children’s Medical Center North. The hospital will be located on 34 acres at Avery Ranch Boulevard and 183A in Williamson County. Totaling more than 187,000 square feet, the four-story hospital will include 36 beds, emergency and trauma services, four operating rooms, endoscopy and procedure rooms, and in and outpatient sleep labs and shelled space for future growth.

Building upon the identity of the existing Dell Children’s campus, the exterior design for the new hospital will continue a story of connection to care and community. The exterior will utilize the same color tones, limestone brick and a tower that will adorn the coronet, inspired by the hats worn by the Daughters of Charity – similar to the tower that currently lives on the Dell Children’s central campus. The interior design of the hospital will be an extension of the natural surrounding landscape. Large windows and spaces will optimize natural light promoting health and wellness, creating a welcoming place for children and families to heal.

1st floor – Level III Trauma Center 18 emergency bays, imaging center and an outpatient retail pharmacy
2nd floor – 4 operating rooms, 2 endoscopy rooms and room to grow
3rd floor – 36 universal beds (12 designated as intensive care rooms and 24 designated as acute care rooms) and a Ronald McDonald House 2 bedroom suite and family respite space
4th floor – Additional space for future growth for up to 72 beds

The north campus will also include a 60,000-square-foot medical office building and dedicated free parking. This pediatric multi-specialty medical office building will include such subspecialties as: child and adolescent psychology, outpatient physical and occupational therapy, a sleep lab, cardiology, plastic surgery, ear, nose and throat surgery, rheumatology, gastroenterology, pulmonology, neurology, infusion services, dermatology, hematology and infectious disease.
