MEMPHIS, TN — In Memphis, Tennessee, Regional One Health has announced plans for a new hospital campus in the city’s historic Edge District, an investment designed to expand critical services and strengthen community access to care.
The projected scope includes a Bed Tower, Trauma and Burn, Women and Infants, an expanded emergency department, Post-Acute Services, Oncology, and modernized ancillary service suites.
Memphis Healthcare Builders, a joint venture leading construction management for the project, includes Turner, Flintco, Nickson General Contractors, and Fifer & Associates.
Memphis Healthcare Builders was formed to ensure that this investment in health also becomes an investment in Memphis. By combining nationally recognized builders with local firms, the project model centers on benefitting the community — strengthening Memphis businesses, growing local capacity, and building a hospital that will serve the community for generations.
HDR, based in Omaha, Nebraska, is leading architectural design in partnership with Memphis firms Self + Tucker Architects, brg3s Architects, METICULOUS, and Cornerstone. Magnusson Klemencic Associates of Seattle, Washington, will serve as structural engineers, while Salas O’Brien of Irvine, California, will oversee mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and fire protection systems in collaboration with Innovative Engineering Services of Memphis.

The project will expand trauma, burn, and women’s health services while modernizing spaces for emergency care, oncology, and post-acute services. As the only Level 1 Trauma Center within 150 miles and the only verified burn center within 200 miles, Regional One Health treats more than 14,000 trauma patients each year.
Beyond its clinical significance, the project will drive measurable economic impact. Early estimates project the creation of 3,600 construction jobs and 2,300 secondary jobs, generating hundreds of millions of dollars in regional growth over the next several years and reinforcing the Mid-South as a hub for health care innovation and investment.
Design and preconstruction is already underway on Regional One Health’s new Edge District hospital.
