Bartow Regional Medical Center Breaks Ground on Expansion

Nov 10, 2024 | Public | 0 comments

Construction is expected to take a few years to complete.

Since the current location of Bartow Regional Medical Center opened in 1999, the population of Bartow has increased by about 26 percent.

Hospital team members and administration joined with city leaders to celebrate Bartow Regional Medical Center’s own growth, strategically designed to serve the surrounding community.

The $110 million expansion project, announced in June, will expand the hospital from 72 to 90 beds.

The first part of the project will focus on expanding the Emergency Department, adding 27 examination areas, along with adding space to the Sterile Processing Department. The project will also expand and move the Intensive Care unit and add to the cath lab and operating room. More patient rooms will also be added. The first phase is scheduled to take about 16 to 18 months.

Construction is expected to take a few years.
