Union Village in Henderson, Nev., will include a hospital complex and health center; entertainment and specialty retail space; assisted living and independent living options for about 1,500 seniors, according to an article on the Health Facilities Management website.
The project also will include a skilled nursing facility to be attached to a long-term acute care hospital. There will also be an assisted living facility, outpatient therapy and home healthcare.
"The baby boomer generation seeks convenience, leisure and value. Healthy living is increasingly part of this generation's lifestyle, but not at the expense of traveling long distances and at great expense to get comprehensive care," Scott Romney, Valley Health System, said in the article.
Phase 2 will consist of a specialty retail center, residential apartments, entertainment and a midrange-priced hotel. Phase 3 will include a senior village with restaurants and the community's cultural center.
