UAMS Patient Tower & Psychiatric Research Institute
Little Rock, Arkansas
Architect: Polk Stanley | Wilcox Design Team
Developer/Owner: University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences

The 540,000 square foot expansion to UAMS Medical Center is located south of the current hospital, extending west past the previous location of Hooper Drive. When completed, the hospital expansion will include new patient rooms, a new emergency department, clinical lab and radiology department along with room to expand other services.

In addition, the new facility will include additional surgical and interventional suites, an intensive care unit and an intermediate care unit.

The hospital expansion will include 234 adult beds and 60 neonatal beds initially, with space for growth that would bring the total capacity to 393 private adult patient rooms between the new facility and the hospital’s existing Ward Tower.

A new parking deck will have 1,000 spaces intended primarily for patients and visitors. The deck will be located on the lower floors of the new hospital, extending underground.
