HCA Florida Healthcare and the City of Cape Coral announced plans to build HCA Florida Cape Coral Hospital, a new full-service hospital that will expand access to healthcare services for residents of Cape Coral and surrounding communities.
The planned hospital will be located where HCA Florida Cape Coral Emergency currently operates. The project will expand the existing emergency care site into a hospital with inpatient and outpatient services to bring care closer to home.
The project represents an estimated $300 million investment in Cape Coral. Construction is expected to begin in 2027, with the hospital anticipated to open in 2029. Once complete, the new facility will be the 19th hospital in HCA Healthcare West Florida Division.
The planned three-story hospital is slated to include approximately 200,000 square feet. Phase one is expected to include up to 100 acute care beds, an emergency department, operating rooms and a cardiac catheterization lab, with future capacity to expand as community needs grow. Planned services include emergency care, surgical services, cardiovascular services, inpatient care, outpatient services and imaging.
