Building the Future of Healthcare
Rice Medical Center Capital Campaign
Big City Medicine with a Small-Town Heart
For Naming Rights & Recognition Opportunities
A Vision Taking Shape

The future of healthcare in our community is no longer just a vision—it is becoming a reality.
Rice Medical Center is launching a $15 million Capital Campaign to support a transformational expansion that will bring a new Emergency Trauma Center and Wellness & Education Center to our campus.
This project ensures that our community continues to receive high-quality, life-saving care—close to home.
Designed for the Future of Care

As shown in the design above, this expansion is built with both function and patient experience in mind:
- A dedicated Emergency Trauma Center with improved access and flow
- Covered emergency drive for faster, safer patient arrival
- Modern, welcoming spaces that reflect the quality of care delivered inside
- Seamless connection between emergency services and outpatient care
More Than a Hospital Expansion

This project extends far beyond emergency care.
The new Wellness & Education Center will provide:
- Expanded rehabilitation services (PT, OT, Speech)
- Aquatic therapy for recovery and mobility
- Space for visiting specialists
- Behavioral health services
- Community wellness and prevention programs
- Education space for patients, families, and healthcare training
This is how we keep our community healthier, longer—not just treat illness.
Why This Matters Now
Our growth has outpaced our current space.
- Emergency volumes are rising
- More patients are choosing RMC for care
- Regional reliance on our services continues to increase
We have proven we can deliver high-quality care.
Now we must build the facility to match it.
