Birmingham-based construction firm Robins & Morton has begun work on a $220 million Florida hospital expansion.
The project includes vertical expansions in two existing areas at AdventHealth Daytona Beach, totaling five stories.
Construction work began this month and is expected to be completed by the fall of 2026.
The 240,000-square-foot addition will add 104 new beds, including intensive care and progressive care beds, an expanded cardiovascular intensive care unit and a dedicated neuro-ICU unit.
It will also include an expanded sterile processing unit, a new and enlarged pharmacy, a new lab and an additional CT and MRI. The number of surgical suites will expand from 18 to 22.
Once completed, the Daytona Beach hospital in Florida’s Volusia County will grow to 466 beds with just under 1 million square feet in total.
The project will also give AdventHealth Daytona Beach the ability to quickly expand inpatient beds and surgical suites in the future.
“It’s been incredible to see how AdventHealth Daytona Beach has continuously grown its services for this community,” Robins & Morton Operations Manager Angel Colon said. “I had the privilege of helping build the original hospital from 2006 to 2009, so it’s a full circle moment as Robins & Morton begins another significant project on this campus. We’re grateful to AdventHealth East Florida Division for their trust.”
