AdventHealth Riverview, the health system’s newest greenfield hospital, officially opened Oct. 23, marking a significant next step in providing high-quality health care for the rapidly growing communities in the South Hillsborough County area of West Florida.
The 282,000-square-foot facility opens with 82 beds with plans to expand to 202 beds to meet the growing community's needs. AdventHealth Riverview will provide emergency care, cardiology, labor and delivery, bariatric, general, neurosurgery, orthopedics and spine surgery. It will also provide imaging, laboratory and additional ancillary health care services.
At opening, 60 percent of the hospital will be used for patient care. The remaining 40 percent is designed to expand based on the growing needs of the community. AdventHealth Riverview has also employed more than 1,000 administrative and clinical team members, all while attracting top talent.
“We are honored to bring our unique brand of whole-person care to the Riverview community” said Jason Newmyer, president and CEO for AdventHealth Riverview. “Our investment of $263 million in this state-of-the-art facility will be a beacon of hope and healing. We know that patients are more than the sum of their diagnoses, and our compassionate care focuses on healing that is centered on mind, body and spirit.”
AdventHealth Riverview was designed to accommodate future growth while also meeting the current needs of the community. Its leading-edge facilities include surgery rooms equipped with mobile X-ray machines, a hybrid operating room for advanced vascular and cardiac procedures, three of the newest Da Vinci 5 surgical robotic systems, and a secure mother and baby unit with eight labor and delivery rooms with two C-section rooms located inside the unit.
For emergency services, AdventHealth Riverview features a full-service rooftop helipad to accommodate AdventHealth AirStar 1, the health system’s newest medical helicopter in the region. This allows for rapid air transport for critically ill patients.
"We know that patients are more than the sum of their diagnoses, and our compassionate care focuses on healing that is centered on mind, body and spirit."
Robins & Morton, the hospital’s construction firm, has played a vital role in the project’s completion.
"We are incredibly proud to celebrate the completion of this state-of-the-art health care facility, which stands as a testament to our longtime partnership with AdventHealth and our dedication to the well-being of our community,” Robins & Morton Florida Division Manager Todd Watson said. “We look forward to seeing this hospital serve the health care needs of Riverview and its surrounding areas for generations to come."
The architect for the project is HuntonBrady, bringing their deep experience in designing forward-thinking health care facilities.
AdventHealth Riverview will play a key role in alleviating pressure from other area hospitals, offering services closer to home for residents of Riverview, Gibsonton, Wimauma, Apollo Beach, Sun City Center and Lithia.
