AdventHealth Daytona Beach announced a multi-year, $220 million construction plan to add 104 beds, four new surgical suites and more than 240,000 square feet to the facility. 

The construction includes vertical expansions on two existing towers at AdventHealth Daytona Beach: a four-story vertical expansion on one tower and a one-story vertical expansion on a separate tower. 

This will add intensive care and progressive care beds, including an expanded cardiovascular intensive care unit (CV-ICU) and a dedicated neuro-ICU unit. It will also grow support services, including an expanded sterile processing unit; a new and enlarged pharmacy; a new laboratory department; and expanded imaging modalities, including an additional CT and MRI. 

Once completed, the hospital will grow from 362 inpatient beds to 466 beds and will become just under one million square feet in total. Additionally, the number of surgical suites will expand from 18 to 22. 

The expansion project will begin this summer and is expected to be completed by fall of 2026. 

Designed with future growth in mind, this project will also give AdventHealth Daytona Beach the ability to quickly expand inpatient beds and surgical suites even further in the future as it includes space for adding more patient rooms, surgical suites and parking accommodations. 

The architect on the project is HuntonBrady Architects.
