BIRMINGHAM, Ala. –The Sanders Trust (TST) announced today that its newly completed Texas Rehabilitation Hospital, a $16 million facility in Arlington, Texas, is ready to admit patients.
The state-of-the-art rehab hospital is owned by an affiliate of TST and is leased to a joint venture between Louisville, Ky.-based Kindred Healthcare Corporation (Kindred); Arlington-based Texas Health Resources and Dallas-based Methodist Health System. Kindred will operate the new hospital on behalf of the joint venture.
An aggressive construction schedule enabled the hospital to open on time and on budget, less than one year after the property’s groundbreaking in July of 2014. Now the roughly 48,000-square-foot, 40-bed hospital is ready to treat individuals who might suffer from stroke, traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury or similar medical conditions.
“This opening serves as a model for the post-acute sector where multiple healthcare providers work together to meet community medical needs, while focusing on the most efficient setting to deliver care,” said Steve Hewett, senior vice president for The Sanders Trust.

Texas Rehabilitation Hospital of Arlington is located just off Interstate 20 near The Parks at Arlington.
