Sacred Heart, which owns and operates Studer Family Children’s Hospital, will now be affiliated with Gainesville-based University of Florida, according to the report. Though the two organizations will cut ties at the end of the year, Nemours has a lease that goes through 2018, allowing Nemours to continue to treat patients at Sacred Heart for now, according to the report.
In a video message, Nemours Children’s CMO Mary Mehta, MD, provided the following statement: “Our relationship with Sacred Heart may be changing, but our commitment to taking care of children and families in northwest Florida is not. We intend to be here and continue to provide that extra special care needed for complex patients and our hope is to continue to expand our services to treat more children throughout the region.”
