The secondary facility is located approximately 25 miles from the primary site and is expected to generate rare call activity. Both facilities maintain APP staffing to support coordinated clinical operations and facilitate an efficient call-escalation model throughout each coverage period.

Destinations include Space Center Houston, the Houston Zoo, the Museum of Natural Science, and Hermann Park. The museum district, Discovery Green, Buffalo Bayou, and the Downtown Aquarium provide additional options for outdoor and cultural experiences.
