Ribbon Cutting Celebration for Norman Regional HealthPlex Expansion

Let's celebrate with a Ribbon Cutting ceremony for Norman Regional HealthPlex Expansion. Inspire Health’s planning and design phase begins with the consolidation of inpatient acute care services from Norman Regional Hospital to the Norman Regional HealthPlex. The consolidation of acute care services provides a consistent patient experience, enhanced access, increased physician satisfaction and additional efficiency with hospital operations.

When the HealthPlex originally opened in 2009, it was designed for future growth. Ten years later, the HealthPlex has reached the point in patient volumes that demands expansion of acute care beds. In fact, the HealthPlex has surpassed Norman Regional Hospital inpatient admissions and discharges. The acute care services currently housed at Norman Regional Hospital will be consolidated into the HealthPlex and result in 307 inpatient beds. The growth in hospital beds will also require the expansion of core services such as surgical suites, intensive care, an expanded emergency department and other ancillary services. The consolidation of inpatient beds to one location will help alleviate confusion for patients and families when seeking urgent medical care and reduce overall operating costs for Norman Regional, by approximately $13 million annually.
