Altamonte Springs, Fla.-based AdventHealth opened its $21.5 million AdventHealth Meadow Woods emergency room March 10 in Orlando, Fla., making it the health system’s 27th freestanding ER in the state.
The 13,700-square-foot facility comprises 12 patient rooms, respiratory therapy services, diagnostic imaging, an on-site and full-service laboratory, and a pharmacy, according to a March 10 news release shared with Becker’s.
AdventHealth Meadow Woods is expected to bring 90 jobs to the area it services, including clinical and support positions. AdventHealth Celebration (Fla.) will oversee the facility.
