MIDLAND, TX — Construction firm Robins & Morton is making progress on the new Permian Basin Behavioral Health Center in Midland, Texas.
The 200-bed, $232 million facility, being built on a 54-acre site, will offer short- and long-term treatment for psychiatric patients of all ages. It will include a crisis stabilization unit, outpatient center, amenities, and a community education center.
The facility is being developed by the Texas Facilities Commission and will be operated by a new entity co-sponsored by Midland County Hospital District and Ector County Hospital District. The project is funded by the State of Texas and a wide variety of Permian Basin individuals and charitable organizations.
“We’re excited about the progress of this project that will help meet the growing need for behavioral health care services in Texas,” Robins & Morton Division Manager Eric Groat said. “We are getting closer to delivering this facility, which will serve our community for many years to come.”
The project hosted a ceremonial topping out in mid-December 2024 and is expected to complete structural steel installation in February 2025. It is scheduled for completion and occupancy in early 2026.
