Orlando Health and Acadia Healthcare held a ceremony to celebrate the start of construction on a previously announced 144-bed behavioral health hospital that will expand access to critical mental health services in the Orlando metro area.
Slated to open in the spring 2025, the hospital will be a center of excellence situated ideally to serve as a natural extension of the Orlando Health system. The state-of-the-art hospital will offer comprehensive inpatient and intensive outpatient treatment for adults, seniors, children and adolescents who struggle with acute symptoms of mental health such as anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), as well as treatment for co-occurring disorders. Berglund Construction is the general contractor and Stengel Hill Architecture is the architect for the project.
Once the new hospital is fully operational, Orlando Health will transfer all inpatient behavioral health services from its South Seminole Hospital Campus.
