While not quite ready to open, Intermountain Primary Children’s Hospital’s second campus in Lehi will soon be celebrating a major construction milestone.

The Outpatient Center at the Larry H. and Gail Miller Family Campus has been substantially completed and is set to open early next year.

“While not open yet to the pubic, we didn’t want to wait to share this exciting construction update that brings us a little closer to helping patients and families in the rapidly growing southern Salt Lake and Utah counties,” said Lisa Paletta, president of the Intermountain Primary Children’s Hospital Miller Family Campus.

The center will have three behavioral health programs that include an outpatient clinic, intensive outpatient services and a partial hospitalization program for higher-acuity patients not quite in need of inpatient care.

The center will also include diagnostic services and technology, including neurological, heart and lung tests and services, The Safe and Healthy Families programs for patients healing from physical or sexual abuse, full outpatient rehabilitation services, and an oncology and infusion center.

“We’re setting the bar for what’s possible in children’s health, here and across the nation, by building a model health system that meets the needs of children today and generations to come,” said Katy Welkie, Intermountain Primary Children’s Hospital’s chief executive officer and vice president of Intermountain Children’s Health. “The Larry H. and Gail Miller Family Campus is a key part of this unprecedented endeavor to support healthier children.”

Utah County is one of the fastest growing counties in the nation with nearly one-third of Primary’s patients coming from Utah County and south Salt Lake County. The 38-acre Miller Family Campus will include the Outpatient Center and a five-story, 66-bed, 486,000-square-foot Primary Children’s Hospital. The hospital will have an emergency department, trauma services, neonatal intensive care surgical services, pediatric intensive care services, the state’s first pediatric crisis center, six operating rooms, nine infusion rooms including chemotherapy, advanced imaging, inpatient behavioral health and pediatric subspecialties and diagnostics.
