The recent topping-out ceremony of a vertical expansion project at AdventHealth Daytona Beach in Florida marked a significant milestone, signifying the structural completion. The project will increase the hospital’s footprint to nearly 1 million square feet, bringing more hospital beds, surgical suites and critical care services to help more people access the care they need, when they need it.
The expansion adds the equivalent of an entirely new hospital to the region. Two existing towers are growing – one by four stories, the other by one – making room for:
- 104 intensive and progressive care beds, including an expanded cardiovascular intensive care unit and a dedicated neuro-ICU unit
- Four new surgical suites
- Expanded imaging services, including additional CT and MRI equipment
- A bigger pharmacy, lab and sterile processing area
- Another parking lot with nearly 300 spaces for easier access.
Construction began in the summer of 2024 and is expected to be completed by the fall of 2026. Robins & Morton is leading the project as the general contractor; architect HuntonBrady designed the expansion.
