🏥 HCA Florida St. Lucie Hospital has officially opened a new 6-story parking garage in Port St. Lucie, adding 667 free parking spaces and 13 electric vehicle charging stations 🚗⚡ Hospital officials say the expansion was needed after patients were previously forced to park along curbs and even on the grass due to heavy demand.
📈 The hospital says admissions are already up 20% in 2026, with deliveries more than doubling from the previous year 👶 The new garage is part of a larger expansion that also includes additional beds and a new labor and delivery suite to help serve the area’s growing population.
🏗️ Hospital leaders also confirmed future growth plans are already in progress, including a future tower on the campus aimed at helping residents access care closer to home ❤️ Officials say improving access to providers during critical moments can directly impact patient outcomes and overall patient experience.
