The new Florida Coast Health Network will provide high-quality care to the residents of Martin and St. Lucie Counties

May 24, 2022 – The Palm Beach Health Network, the largest healthcare provider in Palm Beach County, is pleased to announce the expansion of its award-winning services to the Treasure Coast. Plans are now underway to begin building a new, technologically advanced facility slated to open in Port St. Lucie in 2024. The 54-bed acute care hospital will offer specialized surgical services including orthopedics, spine, robotics, general surgery, advanced cardiac care, and diagnostic services. This expansion will allow the Palm Beach Health Network to extend its acute care health system capabilities to increase access to its services locally across Martin and St. Lucie Counties.

The facility will be the cornerstone of the newly developed Florida Coast Health Network, a sister healthcare entity that will benefit from the depth of resources in the Palm Beach Health Network. On the campus of the new hospital, the Florida Coast Health Network will expand access to leading physicians in a convenient location with the addition of a new medical office building. There will also be greater access to outpatient surgical services with affiliated ambulatory surgery centers through the Palm Beach Health Network’s relationship with United Surgical Partners International (USPI).

“Currently, many Martin and St. Lucie County residents travel south to seek advanced healthcare services,” said Maggie Gill, Chief Executive Officer. “With the future opening of the Florida Coast Health Network, we will be able to create a stronger healthcare infrastructure with high-quality care for the Treasure Coast community.”

The Florida Coast Health Network announcement comes on the heels of Palm Beach Health Network’s recent $150 million investment toward acquiring state-of-the-art technology, improving infrastructure, enhancing patients’ experiences, clinical resources, and continuing education programs. More details on the new hospital and the Florida Coast Health Network will be available in the coming months.
