Boynton Beach Florida Add commentsWork has officially begun on the new $130 million, 80-bed Bethesda West Hospital.

“We are absolutely thrilled that the growing communities of West Boynton will have access to lifesaving emergency medical care, inpatient services, and a full range of outpatient services in a community hospital – in their neighborhood, which is one of the fastest growing communities in all of Florida,” said Robert B. Hill, President and Chief Executive Officer of Bethesda Healthcare System.
Bethesda Healthcare System’s initial plans for Bethesda West Hospital include building an acute care hospital with general medical, surgical and intensive care services; outpatient services; and a 24-hour emergency department.
The new Bethesda West Hospital will be a beautiful, state-of-the-art, environmentally sound facility that complements the architecture of the surrounding area and features: all private patient rooms; intensive care rooms; full service operating room suites for inpatient and outpatient surgery; post-anesthesia care treatment areas; a 24-hour emergency department with 18 patient treatment areas; general medical and surgical services; a full complement of diagnostic services including MRI, CT, general radiography and mammography.
Bethesda, which has proudly served South Palm Beach County since 1959, opened one of the first outpatient medical facilities to serve West Boynton with the opening of Bethesda Health City in 1996. This 137,000 square foot outpatient medical mall provides a comprehensive array of services including diagnostic imaging, laboratory services and private physicians’ offices spanning an array of specialties. Bethesda West Hospital will complete the continuum of vital healthcare services that are needed to sustain the ever-growing West Boynton Beach community.
