To address the growing healthcare demands of Central Florida, Orlando Health is gearing up to unveil its newest hospital in Lake Mary this coming January, which happens to neighbor the existing Orlando Health emergency room along Rinehart Road. Credential journalists were given a glimpse of the two six-story towers, as FOX 35 News reported. With a total of 124 patient beds, six operating rooms, and imaging clinics and labs, the facility is set to enhance the medical landscape of the region.

The expanded services will include a specialty center for women and babies, paying heed to the escalating need for maternity and neonatal services. "We have leaned on our sister hospital, Winnie Palmer, who the community has really come to trust and love, and bring all of those quality services that the Women's Institute provides here in Lake Mary," Rose Palmer, Assistant Vice President of Women's Services at Orlando Health, was quoted in the same FOX 35 News article.

Meanwhile, not too far away, AdventHealth is laying the groundwork for its new facility in Osceola, specifically in the community of Poinciana. WFTV detailed the hospital's plans for a 15,000-square-foot emergency room. The facility is expected to house 16 patient rooms and cutting-edge diagnostic equipment.

Expanding healthcare services will be accessible through this facility, including a full-service lab and pharmacy – a development that underscores AdventHealth's commitment to providing a comprehensive healthcare safety net. "AdventHealth, with its broad array of service lines and hospitals, offers such a safety net for the community. So basically all service lines that historically were not here will be accessible through our AdventHealth facility," Dr. Ketan Pandya, ED Medical Director of AdventHealth, stated, as per WFTV. Expected to finish its first phase by the end of Summer 2025, the community anticipates enhanced access to critical health services.
