HOUSTON, TEXAS (December 2, 2025) - St. Luke’s Health, a member of CommonSpirit Health, and Lifepoint Rehabilitation, an operating division of Lifepoint Health, are partnering to grow inpatient rehabilitation services by building a free-standing inpatient rehabilitation hospital in the Greater Houston area.
The new 58,000-square-foot facility with 40-private rooms will be located on the campus of St. Luke’s Health-Springwoods Village Hospital. It will address a community need by expanding access to intensive nursing, physical, occupational and speech pathology services for adults recovering from conditions such as stroke, neurological disease, brain or spinal cord injury, and other debilitating illnesses or injuries.
“This expansion of our ministry will allow St. Luke’s Health to bring excellent inpatient rehabilitation care with humankindness to one of the fastest growing areas of Greater Houston,” said Michael Lawson, Houston Market President of St. Luke’s Health. “This project is consistent with CommonSpirit’s long-range strategy of providing whole-person care close to home through an integrated continuum of clinics, acute-care sites and post-acute facilities.”
Upon completion, Lifepoint Rehabilitation will manage the day-to-day operations of the facility.
“We know our partners at St. Luke’s Health share Lifepoint Rehabilitation’s commitment to patient-centered specialty care,” said Russ Bailey, president of Lifepoint Rehabilitation. “Through our continued investment in leading-edge technology and advancement of evidence-driven therapy models, we remain focused on restoring our patients to their daily lives in good health. We look forward to working alongside St. Luke’s Health as we expand access to high-quality rehabilitation care in the Greater Houston area.”
Construction is set to begin in early 2026 with the hospital anticipated to open in Spring 2027.
