Rusk State Hospital

In June, Rusk State Hospital in East Texas celebrated opening a new 200-bed, 227,368 square-foot patient complex.  At the new facility, primary design features include single-person rooms, natural light throughout patient rooms and common areas, and outdoor spaces to promote healing and recovery. The hospital offers a variety of therapeutic, recreational, and social experiences to prepare patients for life outside the hospital. The 200-bed patient complex also includes a theater, music room, beauty salon, canteen, library, gym, greenhouse, and teaching kitchen.

Kirlin is proud to have supplied many of the downlights throughout the complex, most of which were LRV-06121 ligature- and vandal-resistant fixtures, as well as MNS-05924 nightlights in the patient rooms.  Thank you to ALA for your hard work with HKS to get these fixtures on the job!
