Texas Health and Human Services and Robins & Morton completed a replacement facility for Rusk State Hospital.
The 225,000-square-foot project replaced a 100-year-old psychiatric hospital, complete with a 100-bed non-maximum-security unit and 100-bed maximum security unit.
This 200-bed facility increased the number of maximum-security beds from 40 to 100. The hospital’s overall capacity stayed the same. The administration building was also replaced during this update.
In total, the state allocated approximately $200 million for the project.
