Overview

Project Overview

This 4-story, 288,000 SF, 134-bed acute care hospital includes surgical, obstetrics, and intensive care beds, supported by the complex mechanical infrastructure required for a modern healthcare campus. The project includes a one-level, 20,856 SF Central Energy Plant; a free-standing 4-level, 64,000 SF Medical Arts Building with a 6,820 SF covered connector to the hospital; and a 4,134 SF Early Learning Center.

From a mechanical construction perspective, the campus required careful coordination of HVAC, plumbing, medical gas, and central plant systems to support critical healthcare operations, patient comfort, infection control, and long-term facility reliability. The reinforced concrete structure with exterior precast walls reflects the Mediterranean style used throughout Baptist Health campuses, while the hospital was designed to withstand Category 5 hurricanes.
