History

Huguley is named after Herbert T. Huguley, a dentist and a real estate investor of Dallas, Texas who provided $6 million in funding for the hospital from his estate in honor of his parents. Huguley Memorial Medical Center opened in February 1977 and was one of the first hospitals in the U.S. to have all private rooms. In 2012 Adventist Health System and Texas Health Resources created a joint venture company that owns and operates the hospital, which later changed its name to Texas Health Huguley Hospital Fort Worth South.[1][2]

In May 2014, the construction of a new $95 million six story tower with 140 beds was started. The new tower with bigger spacious rooms was opened August 7, 2016.[1][2][3] In early 2022, a $73 million expansion started with a new four story tower. Construction will be completed in 2023.[4][5]

Accreditation

Huguley is accredited by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO).[6]
