Gulf Coast Medical Center Skilled Nursing Unit Breaks Ground
Lee Health’s Gulf Coast Medical Center kicked off construction on a 57,000-square-foot, post-acute care skilled nursing unit for Lee Health in Fort Myers, Fla.
Developed by Aquila Healthcare Development, Lee Health is leasing the three-story, 75-bed medical facility which will provide post-acute services for patients needing short-term medical recovery and rehabilitation after their hospital stays.
Gulf Coast Medical Center Skilled Nursing Unit is designed with a homelike approach with three separate units, each housing an open concept living room, kitchen, nurses’ station, and 25-private patient beds with convenient access to the occupational and physical therapy rooms.
The project is being built by Stevens Construction and architectural services provided by Studio+. It is expected to be completed in 2019.
