AdventHealth Wesley Chapel leaders cut the ribbon on the newly completed sixth floor of the hospital’s North Tower, adding 24 patient beds to help meet the needs of Pasco County’s rapidly growing community.
WESLEY CHAPEL, Fla. -- Nearly 200 people gathered to mark another major milestone in AdventHealth Wesley Chapel's multi-year expansion project. Hospital leaders, government officials and community members were a part of a ribbon-cutting for the fully completed sixth floor of the new North Tower.
The remaining two floors are reserved for future growth. AdventHealth will eventually add an additional 48 beds, positioning AdventHealth Wesley Chapel to continue meeting the evolving needs of families across Pasco County.
Over the past year, the hospital has added more than 80,000 square feet of new space and renovated nearly 9,000 square feet of existing space. The expanded Graduate Medical Education program space opened in August for its Family Medicine Residency, and in October, the courtyard infill project added an MRI, two CT machines and a new procedure room.
“It’s truly a privilege to celebrate another exciting milestone in the life of AdventHealth Wesley Chapel, which has grown right alongside our incredible community,” said Ryan Quattlebaum, president and CEO of AdventHealth Wesley Chapel. “Since opening our doors in 2012, our mission has been the same: to extend the healing ministry of Christ through compassionate, whole-person care. This hospital was designed from the ground up to maximize healing, patient care and wellness.”
The new tower is set to open on Dec. 1.
